A Spider Friend

I thought we were friends, true to each other. I thought he was more than my own brother. He was very kind to me, and I was even kinder. He helped me a little and I was a better helper. But when he didn’t benefit from me any longer. He turned his back on me just like any stranger. I felt betrayed, forsaken, and pain was greater. I wondered how fast he turned into a hater! I wondered how he lived as a fabricator! His life was false and he was so big a faker! He could’ve been a friend, a man, not a traitor! I wondered why he chose to be a killer spider. Those falling in the net took him for a liberator. Those surviving it knew he was a terminator. 9/8/2014
