This is an interesting piece. It seems to be speaking
about a black widow who can't help herself. Just destroying one after the other, weeping after the deed. Enjoyed reading this one.

This is a very interesting senryu poem, that meets the requirement of the contest, containing seventeen syllables or less. Good use of words.

I'll give you four stars for creativity and following tough form. I just don't really understand it. That being said, I still respect your poetry. It has something someone other than me would really enjoy.

    If you don't understand a work,then just don't review it.And giving 4 stars without any suggestion makes no sense.

Oh my friend, the black widow does it again. She gets her prey and then weeps. She must be a killer with a conscience. Good writing my friend.

Nicely done, the description of the eyes made up with black cosmetic design is very dramatic. One can see the black widow weep as she searches for more prey. Good job, Carolyn

You crete a vivid and powerful image here, Anupam! Presumably the black widow's tears are only to elicit sympathy from her next victim - a device to lure him into the net!

You have given this reader in instant image, the widow is well fed I assume? He was her prey...
I enjoy your short pieces
Thank you

Just one question
'Kohled'?

    'kohled eyes'-eyes with kohl(eye make-up/mascara)applied on them.
    Thanks for your kind words and excellent review:)

Your little senryu has a startling effect as the reader digests the significance of the first and second lines and then you punch the meaning home with the black widow imagery in the last.

"venom took his life
