Triolet~Beauty's Death

A kaleidoscope of silky womb
is dancing beauty's death.
A fate of unsuspecting doom
A kaleidoscope of silky womb
Victims spun in ghostly tombs,
as the weaver awaits another guest.
A kaleidoscope of silky womb
is dancing beauty's death.

It is good to see you, hope all is well. The triolet is not a form I'm fond of, repetition in form, but you've written about a subject that not only interests, but is accentuated with the form... well done! typo... you left the "k" out in the next to the last line. Richard
