The Widow
Monday, October 7th, 2019It’s a tainted web of red
spun with malice and molten silver.
It’s laced with pearls of dewdrops
and the souls of those consumed.
Her gentle dance resuming,
she hangs on a single thread.
Go now, for if she weaves again,
she’ll snag you…and you will be loved,
stuck in her tainted web of red.
