The man eater

 

The man-eater

sucks upon the juices

savours the aroma

of bewilderment

by beauty

 

The game is played

to her advantage

the pressed flesh eroticism

stench evident upon

the mind of the toy

 

She devours

peeling away

the flesh exposing

layer upon layer

bones, organs

and finally

the heart

which she places still beating

upon the trinket-laden

charm bracelet

crowded by scattered hearts

of willing victims

she smiles.
