samson

tongue clicks once, twice
scalene scales and slithering eyes
she bites.
russet colored blown-glass skin
stabs when splintered.
dangerous games
in the fiery snake-vixen's eyes.
she'll hold you in her watery gaze
till your head throbs with your chest
the stagnant tick, ticking
like the biological clock of a barren woman.
she is Gaia, shushing Siren.
aphrodite with shoulders sliding.
tongue slick with anesthetic
she strikes.
black bile-filled fangs into unprepared
white flesh..
you stick straight like a fruitfly in a
spiderweb, strangling on saccharine
ruby-red cough syrup promises.
samson couldn't break those silk spiders' strands.
water-eyes turn amber,
you can't
bring those columns down.
