Dear Dave, love the metaphor you have used in poem. A beautiful widow (human) who has instincts of a 'black widow spider'. She spins a web of deceit and attraction. Hope I am not too far off what you intended~Delice

Beautiful! I don't like spiders, but I love their webs. They are intricate and amazing especially when sparkling with dew.
