Faerie Charms


Keri was a spiteful faerie, sometimes mean, and always intimidating -to me, anyway.
Short, dark, jagged hair.
The biggest eyes for drowning prey.
Her perfect, sharp teeth flash lopsided smiles in her heart shaped face.
This is how she reels them in.
Cute as a button, not many can resist her manipulative charm.
How does she get her eyes to twinkle when someone has to bear the brunt of her fun?
I'm so naive.
Or jealous.
That she never turned her vicious attention on me.
Would I wish that on my worst enemy?
Never.
But for myself?
Maybe just once.
