Old Worm to Young Worm

Despise daylight.
Surface only after dark.
Slither. Wriggle. Writhe.
Insinuation’s the name of the game.
Keep well oiled as you coil through the soil.
Legless is good. Naked is nice.
Stay soft. Hang loose.
Decapitation may not be the end of the world
but when the early bird’s around,
keep your head down.
