(Bear in mind I do not know what the fuck I am talking about.  Like at all.  Seriously.  I generally like poems which rhyme or have some sort of consistent pace or flow or rhythm or cadence to them.  I don't know if that's a necessity to poems or not but it's that shit I like)

You have some odd vocabulary choices that I like but others I do not.

"Pyro looked the scales of the snake,

Spectral were the eyes wishing for valor,"

I like the idea of using a word like Pyro/Spectral and then explaining what it describes.  I think the line beginning with Spectral was a good execution of the idea.  The line beginning with Pyro not so much.  I think Fiery or A Flame or Aflame or Flaming or something similar would work better.  Pyro is slang or a fragment of a word. 

And then for the second line, and this is purely opinion and not particularly educated opinion, I think it would work better if you shortened the line rather than repeat the "were the eyes part"

So putting that together 
"An Inferno were the scales of the snake, Spectral the eyes looking for valor."

The "x-tremed it's soul" part I think would be better cut out, along with the "reapt the wish" part.  The x-tremed part is nonsensical.  The reapt the wish part isn't nonsensical but it's a bit odd and takes away from the rest of the line.  I think the last line would work better as 

"sleeping with both eyes open, sharp as a saber, cunning as a hooded cape, the snake - the Polish Adder"

You've got a unique style, I like it

I like the structure of two slightly longer verses or whatever the appropriate term is, and then one shorter one.  I think it would have been better if you were either more specific or much more general.  It doesn't have much in the way of rhyming or rhythm but I think you probably have something interesting to say.  

It seems like it's a little autobiographical.  I think it would probably be better if you explored themes like this from another perspective.

It is quite short, but still poetic.  It's evocative.

Like the tag line for a movie or a writing prompt.  It could be followed by almost anything.  The woman might be his daughter, or mother, or grandmother, or wife.  They could be somewhere magical, or somber, or Disneyland.  He could be wishing for a cure to her disease, or his, or for a long marriage, or for strength.

It's good.  I like.  Bango approves.

I have nothing helpful to add.  I think you've got a great economy of words.  It's three sentences and doesn't need to have any more and wouldn't work with any less.  I don't have the vocabulary to describe the poetic quality as anything but poetic, but it's that.

This probably would have won if I weren't such a fan of poems that rhyme and goofy shit.  Regret just edged it out for me for those reasons but regardless it is good and I like it and I want more.

I like how long it is and I like that it rhymes but I don't think every verse or stanza or whatever the proper term is for the four line sections works as well as the others.

I think the opening is the strongest.

The second is quite good too though I think saying 
"To wash away my sins" would work better than "their sins" as it seems to be about him specifically in the line about pelting.

The third one I think the...flow or whatever is a bit off. The "and turned into a gale" and "so the taxi I did hail" lines.  I think if you shortened them just a bit it would flow better and sound more natural.  Maybe..

But the storm grew dark,
Breeze turned to gale,
I sought my own ark,
A taxi to hail.

The next portion seems to be a transition from the scene to the Biblical stuff.  I don't have any advice for it.  I tried reworking it in my head.  It's tough.

I quite like the rest of it.  You wrote the longest one by far and it's pretty damn good.  And it rhymes.  Good shit man.  Keep it up please.

They say better the devil we know,
I'm not so sure of that.
All these places we used to go,
I wish we had them back
