A meek, hourglass shines,
like a diamond bright
as she stands there,
under the natural spotlight.
The doe trembles,
as a sweat forms
a pearl on her forehead.
The pearl shines and dazzles
in the scorching rays of the headlights.
A Black Widow, weaves
Her silk thread around
her legs, and knits
her a silky dress.
Black Widow’s fishnet
is her only shield,
to protect her sanity.
Her short dress
covers her sylphlike body.
A gush of cold wind
fills her hollow frame with life.
She stands there
on the desolate highway,
waiting for her
knight in the shining armour
to save her
like he does every night.
She smiles at vehicles of life
that pass her carcass.
Her muffled screams
lay unconscious ,
inside her rigid body
as she enters a Sierra.
Each Garment she sheds
she changes, and
transforms…
on a night of full moons.
Adrenaline rush,
blood soars in her veins.
Her breaths are warm
against his skin,
her eyes are moist
as she performs her rituals.
Sierra speeds up,
escaping millions of
dimensions.
Galaxies explode
to the sound of fabric
being ripped apart.
Winds change,
storms calm down.
The love that buds
squashes his smile.
He exited his Sierra,
metamorphosed.
Bold, brave,
beautiful, and strong,
with money in his shorts
and clothes
barely covering his body,
to fill his family’s
empty stomach.
The Moon,
whether full or half (all were the same),
experienced the trauma
of a human that
transforms each night,
to run a family
it sacrifices
its soul,
to be devoured
by a stranger unknown.
