Superior yet with less eyes and no sticky feet

It's funny how we can see spider's webs Pity those flies with their five eyes missing them Yet never reflecting on the fact we have only two eyes Of course we wouldn't get caught in them We are just too smart But what is a web? How do silken strands ensnare? When it's all over it makes sense If your brain hasn't been liquidised of course I pity us, little experiments that we are Never appreciating the days we fly free Is it possible to never get tangled up? I have strong forward motion Keep kicking off the binds But I haven't figured it out yet Insides turning to mush So so soothing I mean, we sign up for that There's more to be said But I've just lost my thread

As one who loves spiders, I really enjoyed this poem. I don't think you'd want to be a spider because they don't live very long.

Ahh it's all relative - however I'd probably struggle to remain vegetarian and my fashion choices would be limited, so I'll decline if the offer comes along :) thanks for your fun comment x

Thanks Clive - I love poetry for the fact I'd have to keep thoughts like that to myself otherwise :)

Be careful resting on a throne - it might just be an illusion from the 'spiders' larder :)
