Black Widow Butterfly
By Ashraf Hamed Junior, 2/3/09

So beautiful
So lonely without you
Your venom is my fetish
You hide in the darkness, so you can barely see
Me and you shouldn’t even have this friendship
Your aroma is just…so desirable
Yet my toxic infatuation should be clearing, but it is yearning for your venom once more
Your something I take for granted and your no better either
Me and you, Light and Dark
Heads and tails, X’s and O’s.  
Why can’t I stop thinking?  My mind is filled a bursting
But your smell, your voice, your lips, a kiss, sucks me back to where I was

So envious
So full of lust
My heightened senses are tingling, when your around
I see without seeing, with your venom
I hear without sound, it’s because of your nectar you spread to each of your victims
I speak without a thought, when I am around you
Is it love or am I intoxicated with your smell
The smell that attracted the others, but you sent them away
Isn’t that it?  You sent them away because you loved me from the start
Me and you, opposite sides of the coin
Ups and downs, your proton to my electron
The world is spiraling around. The never ending course of venom you bring me
Can’t resist
But your smell, your voice, your lips, a kiss, sucks me back to where I was

So honest
Yet so delicate
You take me to another world with your words
Helping my soul, but slowly taking me to the other side
Is everything we had, is nothing in your eyes
If it wasn’t meant to be, we be part of the cinerary
Me and you, North and South
East and West, Truth and lies
Our lies always end with the truth, so why to begin with?
But your smell, your voice, your lips, a kiss, sucks me back to where I was

Wait, Stop, Please, mind set me free, but you won’t
This feeling I grasped and never shall not let free
You Black Widow Butterfly, never leave.
This is one of my best poems. I enjoy it, the story behind it, if you didn't pick up is that this is a poem of someone you love dearly, and they don't love you back. It's a terrible thought, but there is such thing in this world. I hope you enjoy this poem, as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Some of the lines (particularly in the middle stanza) seem a tad cliched, and a tad over-written. There are too many words, in my opinion, to be purely poetry. However, the cluttered arrangement of the words disqualifies it from being pure prose, either.

The ideas are good, but I think they are being squelched by the malignant mass that has metastasized around them.
