stripped naked
piercing look of pure hatred
obeys evil whims
stripped naked
dives into her tapestry
of wild daisies
piercing look of pure hatred
swallows her
-whole
obeys evil whims
in a field of daisies,
her soul escapes

That’s what I thought was at the heart of this piece. Glad my guess wasn’t too off base. It’s a great poem, very suspenseful.
