Myth #9: Asklepios

"Immortality Is Everybody Dying,"
My My, What Is It You Are Implying?
That I Need You All Gone In Order To Live Forever?
My My, Is That A New Nerve To Sever?

I Know How This Story Ends,
I've Been Here Before,
Did You Forget? You And I Are No Friends.
I'll Remind Your Bleeding Corpse.

Tell Me Again, Fixer,
Have You Come To Serve Thy Elixir?
Or Is This Another Parlor Trick You Offer?
I Do Enjoy A Good Slaughter.

How Many More Times Will You Bother Us In Our Room?
Can't You See We Are Busy,
Enjoying Her Gloom?

He does not understand, T, he is stubborn.
Stubborn, T? That He Is.
What is it he mutters?
It's Feeding Time For The Others.

Tell us, Fixer, what is it you have there?
On Your Coat Pocket?
Is that a new locket?
My My, I've Seen It Somewhere...
What's in it, Fixer? A photograph?
Or A Note. Or Perhaps A Pill.
My my, what a thrill.
Is It Time To Kill?

What hunt are we going after this time, T?
The Next Monster, T.

I see.
I See.
