He was the offspring of the monsters Echidna and Typhon, and was usually described as having three heads, a serpent for a tail, and snakes protruding from multiple parts of his body.

Cerberus

A wonderful darkness
Of hell
Contains miracles and mysteries.

A night of life
Without memories.
The monsters shake
And the dog
Guards the underworld.

Life and death
Are parts of the same
Cycle.

Cerberus stands
At the frontier.
