Eight Leggers Grill

bag of spiders,
lair contained,
unless
shaken and poured

it’s raining spiders -
spiders reigning…its a downpour

bag of spiders, spidermen
weaving webs - oh what wild webs conceived

spiderlings take rappelling lessons -
humans repelled by sticky wickets…

a trampoline buffet.
lacy architecture unique.
Eight Leggers Grill capitalizes
on an insect infestation.

bag of spiders, they’re no cocooned butterflies.
arachnid’s legs running loose, climbing
into cracks, crevices and corners,
on the loose…

At least they eat insects, if anything good can be said :)

Yes in the Spring they seem to come out of everywhere. They try to come in under doorways and window cracks to get warm or out of the wet. Yuch! Good Write Kim. God Bless, JB
