The Lady Scorpion

The Lady Scorpion survives the desert madness...

She hears them about her during the long hot
Day from her burrow beneath ground
Where she lay storing energy to defend again

The darkness shall be coming soon
Predator and prey again she will stalk Night
As it stalks her
She will run as far as her legs will carry her
From danger, and will only strike
When needed


But lethal are the consequences of her
Necessity,
Forgotten is flight, the sting is all her
Enemy knows before oblivion

She knows no rest, no end
But she will survive,
Our Lady Scorpion,
Out of the hot desert sun,
Deep beneath ground, she is waiting
And nothing will stop her
Nothing will hold her

Not while she still lives
