Be silent with me, seek
The passion in my stare
For what you will find there
Is not meant for the weak
And surely not the meek
But only if you dare

Aye, come closer a pace
Spy the twists of my curls
How they move how thy swirl
Reveals the smile on my face
Knowing you’re trapped in place
Stone cold within my lair

Too late to make a fuss
Oh et tu Perseus?
