Notes About The Poem

Written on August 7, 2023

S T a L K E R



Weaving a web, light
Falling in shafts of weightless
Ingenuity
Laughing like stardust
Reflecting silent moments
Does it catch the fly?
Gloating in colors
Hues of delicate sunlight,
Risking graceful rays,
Will she catch his thoughts
In her web, imagining
Graceful traces, sparks
Pure perfection, warmth
In whispers, melancholy
Floods her spirit, light
Chasing rainbows, nice
In passionate embraces
Soothing storms, rainfall
Sighs in the spirit,
Falling on her web, will she
Discover dewlike
Tears flowing down, soft
Against the fabric, her maze?
Silently blowing
Winds healing, gently 
Carrying her rich supplies,
Insects, a diet
Colorful creatures
Will her web never fail her?
Like this blessing, her
Silent moments spent
Waiting patient, the stalker
Will she ever quit?
Grow tired of her game,
The chase never doubts, haunting
Claims to forget, she’s
Forever catching
Rays brought to life, reflections
Between her network
Silent moments, dreams
Bugged by flies, beetles, insects
Who wish she’d resign
But, truthfully, she
Is forever spinning webs
Always so grateful
For her fare of bugs
Creation’s been good for her,
Spider’s fantasy
Nirvana, splendor
In shape of delicacies,
She’ll eat her goodies,
STALKER ‘til the very end!

I didn't expect your stalker to be an arachnid, but better a spider than a person! Your Choka never loses sight of its purpose.
