Spiders On Staircases

There! Look there is one more violet spider with legs spread on the staircase outside river walk apartment buildings; they're listening to the young boys playing jazz on Detroit river walk and my brother tells me to never go by them spiders, but I continue to look at them gazing at me and smiling telling me to come over to their silky webs, but my brother says, don't go! So I don't, and I continue to walk down with my head turning back at them and they turn to another man who walks blindly into their silky webs and they take him out with smooth style kisses. and I go down to the plaza and put my feet in the water and skip rocks on the Detroit river watching the boats in even sunset cruise and Canada says hi from the other side.
