Invidia

Invidia

How she’d resented Laura.
Impossible to ignore her smooth alabaster skin
green eyes dewy, like the Spring.

How she envied her retrousse nose;
long slim legs,
shapely thigh to pink tip toes.

Her hour glass form in red dress wrapped,
silken hair with sunlight trapped.

Slyly watching from her lone park bench,
pale plain face,
closed and clenched;
eyes full of Laura’s charm,
surreptitious thoughts of harm
sailed through her odious head,
how she wished Laura dead!

Disaster struck, her curse backfired;
lightning strike…
The Fates conspired.

Down she went upon the grass
smoke rising from her skinny ass
Laura came,
gently knelt beside her…
a jealous rage welled up inside her.
Slowly,
destiny resolved her plight
Laura faded from her sight.
The lights went out,
her body fell
her spiteful soul spiralled down to Hell
