Praying Mantis
anticipation
glad for this mating
to finally take place
I was ready
a willing participant
wanting this gladly
singing my song
I lured him in
to my dark
he was young
inexperienced
I cared not
obviously
his first time
we did the deed
snap
I ate his head
according to plan
same oh same oh
next day
luring one in
another young one
gave a little prayer
before the deed.
