The Black Widow

The night light flickered as the raven sat on the branch, outside the window.

The man was in her lair, dreaming of making love

She tiptoed in with a short black lacy dress and smirked, slowly crawled on him.

Her naked skin brushed against his as he slid his hands between her legs.

Their first kiss, paralyzed his body

The raven outside, crowed incessantly

as she devoured him alive.
