The Black Widow

No spider is bolder than the dangerous Black Widow
Whose poison is ten times as strong as that of a rattle snake
The black widow is easily recognized by the coal-black body and red hourglass marking
The odd black widow's bite can cause serious illness, and sometimes death
She encases her victims with silk, and then kills with poison from her fangs
The fangs are hollow, and about a fiftieth of an inch long
They're fed by her unusually large poison sacs
Only when prompted by a strong hunger does the black widow kill and eat the male after mating

Yes, the dangerous black widow is a menace
