Deadfall
The iron maiden
slowly closes the door
of her breast.
The venom of the black widow
is another web, constricting;
the muscles cramp, the pain
excruciating, intensifies.
The clock has a picture
of a family member for each hour
the hands turn like blades
cutting.
The patient pendulum descends:
the guilty heretic writhes
on the stone altar.
