The Black Widow

The Black Widow

A Poem by Tai Ryens
"

Oh, how I long for your venom . . .

"

Heaven teardrop stains dance

amid my perspective of this window

introduced was a scent rancid

emitted from the venom of a dashing black widow


it should have been you caught

in the spider web spun by your lies

straightforward truths were they not

but yet trapped in belief was I


woe, how I long to taste your venom kisses

and have my time measured by your hourglass

to voluntarily stretch out clean wrists

with faint traces of a scarring past


presently in heaven I refuse to dance

ascended above the wilted corpse at that window

with a heart wallowing in venom so rancid

courtesy of the very same black widow

This sounded far more enticing in my head. I shall keep this in mind for future tweaking and rewriting perhaps.
