The lustrous scales absorb the heat Reflect the rays of Satan’s fire To pacify its cold-blooded nature; You would never look to it for comfort. Slithering against the current of the wind, Tackling every obstacle with fury, Striking foreigners with fear and fascination - my gaze submits defeat nonetheless For the scales of death are reminiscent of her exotic nature, And the culture of her heritage that entails a story of its own.
