They move among us unrevealed. Oh, how they sulk and slither.
In female form,they entice men, with looks saying "Come hither."
When their pray is helpless, by his heart they maintain control,
The destruction begins, tasting the agony, feasting upon his soul
If they have chosen to appear as male, its other games they play
And it is with women, who live in sorrow but dare not run away.
They find many ways to bring her down, with either word or hand.
With spirit broken, on her soul they dine, just as they had planed
On first look they all appear to be of grand beauty and nobility
But peel away these triflings of skin and its other things you see.
Their look bespeaks of evil, their words of hate, their hearts of stone
And the wise learn there are far worse fates than to always be alone.
