Defenses/Crab Fishing

Catdragon, in exchange for a DW code, offered "crab fishing" as a poetry prompt.


Defenses/Crab Fishing

Hold close your walls,
your shield,
guard the tender parts within,
never entirely opening
to another's touch...
So hard, so close, so tight.

Think you're safe?
Look, you've wandered,
irretrievably,
into my trap.
