Orange Eyed Monster

I have never been afraid of spiders
But I never met one like that
It was hiding in back of our ciders
It came out and scared the cat.

Sure it is large, but that was not the worst part
She has orange eyes, and this is only a start.
She has fur on her legs that plays funeral dirges.
I ran from the cellar, scared out of all of my urges.
