Shattered

Very sharp and vivid poem. I admire how little filler words and pronouns you used, it makes this poem stand out more and give those images even more significance. Great verb choice, too. The inclusion of the venus fly trap made me think of preying on the innocent. That something passionate and something that should be consensual was twisted, or that this person felt they could not control their impulses and gave into flesh and lustful encounters.

Interesting piece.
