Sweet Little Spider On the Wall
sweet little spider on the wall
weaving interlacing its thread
exquisite art all spiders own
a spiders entrapment white veil
eight legs briskly interlocking
sweet little spider on the wall
woven silk thread as strong as steel
intricate beautifully spun
dark side of beauty-trap was born,
to feed, its larder must be full,
sweet little spider on the wall
lurking, waiting, biding its time
vibrations detected, prey tangled,
fangs gore in its venom, cocooned,
paralysed, alive be eaten,
sweet little spider on the wall
