My reason for being, to tempt you
Seductress and taker of breath.
I wait in the core of my darkness
To trap you and love you to death
I’m waiting…

excellent
An excellent take on the picture prompt.Your write is powerful and alluring.I love they way your write entices the reader to read further.It's a shame that the host of the contest only wanted 30 lines.I believe that if you were allowed more lines, you could of taken the reader futher into the web of darkness and seduction.Have you thought of adding more lines to this write after it has been judged?It would be an awesome piece of work if you did.
I wish you all the best in the contest.
Take care and many beautiful blessings to you and your family,
Your friend in poetry ~Angel~

lol short and luring. I read this from my quick favourites list and immediately thought about the spiders that kill their mate once they have had their wicked way. When I came to the page and saw the picture I thought it couldn't have matched your words more prefectly. It is excellent. Good luck in the contest

This is so full of dangerous feminine tease and temptation, wonderfully done. I do have a liking for the preying mantis ideas.
