In the holy society <br />of praying mantises <br />females have to feed by rule <br />from males` bodies <br />By mating, just after <br />courting and dancing, <br />while love-making... <br />Once there was a mantis born, <br />I mean hatched, with lesion <br />- kindness in heart. <br />She refused to eat males <br />for breakfast, for lunch, <br />even for dinner! (yet a small eater!) <br />Soon the poor creature, <br />anomaly of the nature, <br />was accused of being a pervert, <br />an outcast of a holy society. <br />She spent her life in praying, <br />writing memoirs and... love poetry... <br /> <br />The idea came to me after watching a documentary on Animal planet channel on tv. :) <br /> <br />Sofia,28.
