Creatures

Thelapois was a serpent,
Evil as the Urchin
Sat on a crown his eyes were ever searching.

Maybe he went for Revacoy
Who was a sailor in a boy
but had the spirit that could lift
a dead man off his wit

So Thelapois sat on the ocean
Waiting like an urchin
To swallow the boy
Whom he marvelled like a new toy

Along came Opilia
She strangled the sea out
Twisted the waters in her labyrinth
Of high mountains and skin

As she searched the horizon
Helifas had told her a while
Like Judas he sold
the spirit of life foretold
To steal what the serpent wanted of old

So the dark winds descended on the boy
And serpents crawled beneath the shore
The horizon was closer
As wanted nothing lower

As they would not understand
They would not if they can
He gave his soul to the little ones
Since then we have all heard of
Stars under the ocean
