Charlie the Spiderrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I star down from the ceiling
my room always tranquil and quiet
every now and then a man appears
he must be a poet
he writes a lot
when he has his glass of wine
there is a second one always for me
he talks now and then
whether to me or himself a mystery
he seems almost as sad though
	as my web of misery

A poet is so immersed in his poetry that he has no time to look up at the ceiling to see spiders busily spinning cobwebs. He must be a chronic bachelor too trying to lessen his loneliness by drinking wine..... :)
