Excellent Haiku (she devours him on) that fits the constraints of this type of poem precisely. Good luck in the haiku-spiders contest.

this is an excellent write, mystery writer, this has got to be about the black widow spider, excellent imagery that can have so many meanings. I wish you the best of luck in the contest.

Spiders have always been considered cunning. I guess deception is a part of their game. Also, this is a sexual commentary on women preying on men. Wonderfully clever. Les

    Thank you Les, I appreciate your review. :) Is not about women, it is about black widow spiders who eat their males. :) grose

Especially Black Widows, of the multi-legged and two legged kind. Some females thrive on devouring their mates as this well written poem so clearly depicts. Should be a good contest entry also. Well done.

Strikingly rich with stunning artwork. Haiku on spiders She Devours Him weaves its own web to entangle and entwine the reader. Best wishes in the contest.

We have lots of the old gals with the red hourglass on their back. They love strips
of grass along walls and fences, but not the weedeaters that go with them. Ick.
Looks like an excellent 5/7/3 15-syllable haiku to me.

This is an eerie feeling entry for the prompt. Good job with the syllable count. The presentation is great--the color scheme, artwork, and words.

I see no changes. Best wishes in the contest.

A deliciously dangerous black widow spider haiku. Hourglass picture and text bathed in blood. Well chosen words give me the creeps. Thank you for sharing this bloody, dark haiku. I wish you success in the contest.
