The Green Eyed Monster
It slithers earthward from the fiery depths
Rearing its ugly head, fangs glinting in the darkness
Nostrils flaring at the scent of fresh blood
Panting heavily with anticipation
Its breath scented with raw and putrid flesh
No one is safe.

Great piece.
Yes Lynn, my very first, I WAS as virgin until now! :)
Jody, quite honestly I never "get" poetry and I don't even usually like it. For some reason, all of the sudden, I felt compelled to write this, go figure!
Thank you all for your comments! You all rock!
