Sean Olivia - The Murderous Snake

Silent screams running through town,
The murderer lurks as the sun goes down.
When night is silent and the air is still,
He appears with a mouth of venomous pills.

Into a house with sleeping bodies,
He creeps past the sea of furry teddies.
To the next door he steathily slides,
Across the cracks, he cleverly hides.

He spots his prey, so quiet they lay.
He'll soon put them out of their comfortable bays.
Ready he springs, his venom leaking.
One little bite, it ended their dreaming.

Sean Olivia
