-I know this sounds weird, I just didn't know any other way to word it-

The snake swallowed me whole,
And I hung on for dear life
Though I knew it would spit me back out
Slithering past me
I knew I'd be be safe from the snake once more
But now I have to worry
About the basilisk
Poisonous and ready for those who enter those underground tunnels
A lot less forgiving
Something I'm a lot less prepared for
Now I have to worry
About the basilisk
