Bag of Spiders

Disgusting could be a weaker word to express the scene, Nauseating and stomach-churning the locus has been; Sliding, slithering, groveling, crouching, crawling, creeping, Filling, feeling, and falling they were seeping and sleeping...! Crab, lynx, silk, orb, ogre... varieties were within, Specimen of many species, yet, resembled akin; Weaving webs and entwining each other they pulled, and pushed, Weighing and wheeling their bodies across they looked ambushed...! Shooting silk out of their abdomen, they preyed on insects, Powerful they all seemed as though with venomous effects; The patience and persistence they practice can be adored, Midst their ugliness their role in the world can't be ignored...!!! 03 June 2023 Bag of Spiders Poetry Contest Bag of Spiders Poetry Contest
