Beauty is the Beast MAG
Her skin, butter-cream by day, turns translucent by night.
Her hair, ebony black, shimmers like the night sky
But only to deceive those she encounters
Her lips, stained crimson from her victims
Eyes piercing blue, penetrating those who make contact with them
Her corpse, deemed immaculate by those she lures into her trap
She is the deceiver, the harlot of the hills
But cleverly disguised
The mark of the beast lies in her hands

Hi! I adored this poem but I have one suggestion- it happens everytime I read something.
Instead of "turns translucent" I thought of "fades to translucent" I know, I'm weird, but I loved the whole poem and the concept is brilliant!
