In fire, at land or underground
Silence profound
Binding her time
To do her crime
Body, bloody red or orange
Eyes white and strange
Beneath the fire
She waits in ire
There she lay, in the fire she hides
At her prey’s strides
Sharp fangs attack
Paralyzed snack
Triumphantly, with fiery eyes
In sweet reprise
She holds her prey
A kill away
The sun now sets and dawns at her
The killing’s spur
The fire snake’s want
Her prize to flaunt
