Nefarious Nursery Rhyme

Little Miss Muffet Sat on her tuffet And what a nice tuffet indeed Along came a spider Sat down beside her Said, “hey babe, you’re something I need” She set down her food And thought, Damn, how rude This insect thinks he is Prince Charming He crawled to her thigh With a wink of his eye Gave a laugh at his thoughts so alarming The closer he got It became quite hot His tiny heart rapidly beating With a swipe of her hand She ended his plan Yelling, “Get lost, can’t you see I’m eating?”

Thanks so much Nette, I learned a long time ago, never bother a woman when she is eating. : ) Now the spider knows that too.
