Small Bier

A fly caught in a freeze frame Paralysed by a spider Clinging comatosely to a curtain It was shaken free from its slumber To be ambushed,where it fell,on the window ledge An opportunistic spider,on the lookout for prey Scuttling with instinctive purpose to pounce Dragged to death Into the spider's lair to stock Its shimmering,intricate larder Part of a feast to be relished in due course A moment serendipitous for the arachnid Tragic for the fly Nature's way,life and death's interplay.
