Hornet's Nest

We meet again,
dear old friend.
In a different form,
with different men.

It's been so long
since last we danced
the dreadful jig
of wolf and pig

Glitter, glitter, little snake
An exotic mistress you do make
Fork tongued heartache
Black crystal snowflake

Last time you held me by your fire
We shook and groaned to our desires
We melted then, as one
As the moon would with the sun
Come dawn, the sun rose higher,
And woke me in a funeral pyre

It's been so long
since last we played
the dreadful game
of fan and flame

Electrifying misery
Poison berried shrubbery
Now I want to play with thee.
