Mariposa De La Muerte
Mariposa skeletal grin
Juxtaposed on bristly skin
Grave tis a harbinger endorse
Whispers fleet of dark horse
Aflutter at midnight pitch
Grim an omen of black witch
Behemoth drummed wingspan
Folklore rants of boogeyman
Beasties haunt the dark
MythsΒ lambaste a mark
Shadows bane incite a rift
Malicious intent adrift
Alas but rumors in vain
Solely superstitions ingrain
A moon engorged proclaim
Tis only moths to a flame

Moths have always fascinated me, the flutter, the burden they carry, the butterfly at night, seeking light.
Wonderfully crafted Lisa.
