I am in awe of the spiderweb forming at my window
Spiders disgust me with a passion but
as I watch her closely I find that she is no
different from me
Capturing and eating her prey whenever she pleases
I am ill at our alikeness, it makes me shiver with
fever like I have some sort of infection of life
And everything is swelling and closing
and I am done
I will die in my own web in due time
but it will be some other larger spider who
will suck my heart out
and it will taste like loss
this is a really good one, i don't necessarily like spiders either but they are such fascinating creatures.
