Beware of the Bushes ahead, br Is what the warning sign read. br br But my curiosity, br It got, br The best of me, br And to the bushes I went over, br I met my best friend, br My worst enemy. br br He was skinny, br Sick, br He was a serpent, br When he politely asked for food, br His words were hypnotic, br And pleasant. br br Seductive hiss, br Promised love, br Money, br Bliss. br I could have it all, br Music to my ears, br I could be rich. br br He had only one request, br That was to feed him til, br His hunger was at rest. br br So I brought him all the food, br I could gather and find. br He ate it, br And grew three times my size! br br I expected with this he would be satisfied, br But it turned out he wanted more br Than I could provide, br And since I did not deliver, br He ate me too! br Like a piece of chopped liver.
