Echidna

Eternal entities claim my time's burden,
as all our expectations return in Chaos,
a cause to sleep among Gaia's children,
monsters born eons ago, along with Eos.

Echidna-Adder; beautiful Gaia's daughter,
and Uranus; facial countenance of a deity,
and in a moment of admittance, serpent,
a deathly coil around your defense alterity.

Echidna will provoke and surrender venom,
in worlds, where her beauty is fantasized,
to reach her dark hidden aptitude phenom,
to taste her hedonism charisma edenized.

Echidna stares; to magnetize a hero's soul,
and dance; a perfect reward for prowess,
effused your life is in a cadaverous call,
softly in your stare she will devotedly hiss.

Cerberus, the guard dog of Hades, a curse
to encounter and to accept in dual forms
your mind and soul's under world obverse
offspring of Echidna and Typhoon storms.

Hera's gild chosen, I 'll kill monsters begotten
children of darkness, nightly poison droves
I, Heracles, their beseeched souls to molten,
under Colossal crags, and crimson cloves..

Echidna, though will live to bear monsters,
to keep heroes on labors, a constant strife
my Herculean soul is on Olympus boulders
her venomous excrement will quell their life.
