Creation
The venom is delivered through life's fangs.
It courses through the veins,
and can not be stopped.
Its presence may not be obvious at first.
The symptoms are silent,
but they will begin to speak.
A subtle and perpetual twitch of the leg
An insatiable itch just out of reach
An ever warming burning beneath the skin.
As the venom makes its way,
the symptoms scream louder.
Legs can not be stilled.
Itches can be sated.
Skin can not be cooled.
Relief will only come
when the antidote is taken.
