Snowy feather boa
cascades milky shoulders
draping over
bustier haltered breasts.
Platinum armlet asp
wraps her petite bicep,
cobra amulet hangs
from her alabaster neck.

Burnished python leather
constricts pleated red satin
cinching her tiny midriff tight.
Her cottonmouth
h
i
s
s
lures in her prey.
A new toy is fixed in her sights.

She swivels her waist slowly,
spine rippling from hip-to-pit
slithering
the crowded dance floor maze.
Planting rattlesnake boots
at her targets toes
stealthily she traps
his gobsmacked gaze.

Then she...

STRIKES!

Antivenom...
she laughs,
her poison flowing
his bloodstream.
Under this spell
he is tonight's plaything.

By the second it wares off
she'll have moved on.
