The Web You Weave

Did you think, that I would not know?

The web you weave with your pernicious soul?
 

You spin and spin and then retreat.

Leaving the entanglement of your ludicrous deceit.

 
At first you don't suceed, you then try it again..

Doing whatever it takes to lure them back in.

 
Think about where you spin your luck.

A paramour, the black widow, may devour you up.

Some people really do spin webs of deceit, only to get caught in their own lies. Very interesting and well-crafted poem, Erin. Best wishes, Carolyn
