Venus Flytrap
I am the fly in the Venus
Struggling hard, but to no avail
Cannot seem to get out of this jail
I am the fly in the Venus flytrap
You enticed me with your sweet taste
But your kiss was poison
Now I’m dying slowly in your grasp
The ever constricting grip
Which will inevitably become my tomb.
