The jab of barbs in skin-quick insertion

Initial shock of fangs' intrusion

Poisonous secretion, venom pouring

Vision narrows as your blood is pumping

Panicking, profusely sweating

Slashing, desperate bloodletting

Grossly metered envenomation

Median lethal dose...sweating out the hemotoxin

...lurking serpentine assassination

You lay alone in a bush, salivating

Onset of paralysis

Vision blackens, heart is stopping
