Mark Longson Poet Verse

Spider On the Ceiling

There's a spider on my ceiling
He's been sitting there all night
From the moment that I spotted him
He gave me quite a fright.

Even at the long off distance 
He appears to be quite big
I've never really liked them
ever since I was a kid.

When I have to walk beneath him 
I run quickly along the wall
I dare not walk beneath him
knowing my luck he would fall.

I yell up to my partner
"Get down here its bloody back!"
It cant be the same spider? 
Because I sucked him up the Vac.

I rush into the kitchen
If the kids see him they'll freak
I drag out our old cleaner
And attachments with long reach

I drag them in the living room
plug in and then switch on.
Then I look up at the ceiling
And the bloody thing has gone!
