Under the Skin

She was dark
A mysterious seductress
Consuming the bones and blood of men
Reducing them to lifeless hollow skins
Left to drift in the void of her heart
So beautiful her cover was
Irresistible her eyes, her curves, her... HER
They followed her flesh
Like a scent a dog could not resist
Without realizing the black widow in her
Was hiding beneath a sheath
Like a spider in its web
Luring its mate into a trap of desire
To feed its hunger on the lust of lovers
Oh that skin, that soft and sensual skin
What lies beneath will surely end in a fiery sin
