Hiya Hydra

Inspired by the second labor of Hercules.

Hiya - hydra
The fight begins.
One head is dead.
Two more took its place
This is not a task I would like to face.

Hiya - hydra
Slice it again,
dead heads twin.
The battle is going poorly.
Strategy is needed surely.

Hiya - hydra
Cauterize the stump.
End the twinning of the head.
Perhaps it will end up dead.
Not killing him instead.

Hiya - hydra
Poison is your blood.
Others it can kill,
ending strength of will,
Just find the mortal head.

Hiya - hydra
No longer do you stand.
Killed by mortal man.
Impressive was the deed,
but still he is not freed
