Soul Eater

she is poison tempting all
to take just a drop from her vile
of soul eating indecent proposals
With this strategy she has
accomplished again and again
her guiled erogenous decay,
because in her form as
picturesque temptress
she does from the vicitm evoke
a nasty black billowing smoke
coming from their inner vortex

To partake of her poison
is to vanquish their souls
so that like her
there is now another,
a dark in heart a wayward being
lost in her humongous fly paper

roving to and fro
not contented to eat you whole
she prefers to leave your carcass
in the juice produced
after she lets you stew for a while
She places one of thousands of her atomizers
collecting for her nape and crown
a reminder of her well
rotten deed of being your
soul eater

Wow! Such bulging imagery of a rat with stained teeth. I know a man who is just like this: acidic, hateful, and abusive. This poem is a cry for darkness to burn in to light. bravo!!!!!!! peace and light, dah

This is deliciously dark and had me hanging on to every line. I enjoyed this read, although I would not like to run across this woman, as tempting as she sounds, I would lose my life.

This is so dark and heavy. It certainly grabs the reader and draws them into its imagery. Well done.
