"Black Widow"

Beware The Widow's Curse...

She cares not whom the mate she takes,
It's the ceremony she adores.
Silk and roses and wedding cake
are what she lives--and kills--for.
But once the ritual is complete,
her bite is surely deadly.
Her thirst is once again replete...
For she's picked her new prey already.
