Nightshade

Nightshade

Rapture beheld fertile
Beauteous wicked guile
Beware o’ fatal vein
Malice cast shall stain

Faultless lulling bell
Malign a toxic quell
Nightshade most fair
Nary mercy to spare

Indigo-hued deign
Assured deceitful reign
Flourish in spite of wilt
Debauchery a sole guilt

Bane unto mortal lip
Ne’er savor paltry sip
Alas formidable dame
Malefic elixir thou fame
