Venus guytrap

he's a fly-by-night guy
she sits still in green
lights by her waving fan
and gently touches a hair
most beautiful thing he's seen

he's enraptured and touches
in a blink, she snaps at him
shut out, shut in, captured
blithely she slowly signifies
he's ensnared by her whim

he wriggles and writhes
flutters wings and tries
to escape her tight clutches
but resistance is futile
flies demise by surprise

Wow. This is great. I just haven't determined whether it reflects love or marriage, or love and marriage, or love, or none of the above. I must start reading more.
