Poem

The mythical figure Tom is clever and is always watching.
An assault with alone or in group leads to certain doom as he has the element of surprise.
Normally the key is to avoid and to not confront this great threat.
Stealth and yet sometimes a bold greeting makes him slip.
In this situation to make your presence known makes him lose the advantage.
This lets you escape and with you life as your prize.
A concrete road is shown in this maze of a forest.
Away from the grass is a dead snake and can be used as potential food.
There are many choices that can happen in span of heartbeat as this might be vital to survive this day.

Thanks for reading.
