She smiles, and teeth are shown;
and she grins, and her cover is blown-
for her teeth, just like her demise, brown like wooden horrors;
and just inside, is just in store;
for any so man that honors-
the mask that she wears, tears skin to a shred;
and the thorns that prickle against naughty skin;
throw severing blades, upon the bed-
her laugh, turns eyes glazed over white as snow; devouring fools, and devouring souls-
and her lashes, a bristle bunch nestled tightly against each eye;
make crimson to trickle down from each hole-
for walking, hand in hand with darkness, makes you forget the light;
why, it crashes the shadows against all that you love;
and burns it down into flames with all might-
…and it is she that shone doom, like a ray of light shone rays;
and it is she that whistles the siren song,
and it is she, that so dare all enslaves-
