Altın Yaprak
A COLD coiled line of mottled lead,
He lies where grazing cattle tread,
And lifts a fanged and spiteful head.
His touch is deadly, and his eyes
Are hot with hatred and surprise—
Death waits and watches where he lies!
His hate is turned toward everything!
He is the undisputed king
Of every path and woodland spring.
His naked fang is raised to smite
All passing things; light
Is not swifter than his bite.
His touch is deadly, and his eyes
Are hot with hatred and surprise—
Death waits and watches where he lies!
