I found a bag outside the door My mind, alert like a sly fox, Advised me not to rush because It could contain Pandora’s box! My fingers itched to pull the string So that the knot I could untie With expectations quite far-fetched To find within pie in the sky! My wife came out, beheld the bag And curiosity galore She was unable to...

Saved a kind soul that was falling with nothing to lose just one abdomen, no sharp fangs but huge. And what's worse the carton I called home, my dark universe upturned just a moment ago.. Uprooted now, I went crawling trying my best to live running from certain death knowin it may arrive wondering why.. always such a test to...

A spider carefully plans and schemes the pattern for its life and quest. It spends its hours weaving dreams until it creates its sticky best. Its web is tatted small and refined or brocaded in heavy tapestry. Soon prey finds itself entwined, entombed within this basketry. The spider calmly enswathes it, a gesture quick yet fatal. To paralyze this tasty tidbit, its single bite is detrimental. To...

I wonder what else is in the grass, seeds and stems in a crevasse? They sprout and spread en masse creating a soft sinking morass. I believe there are secrets we’ll never see perhaps some...

The teeny weeny arachnid crawled up my dingy wall. Little did he know this would turn into a brawl. Then I grabbed a shoe held it high above my head.

Covered in the jungles evergreen thickets, beneath Stones and mortars refuge lays an old Mayan crypt, And on it is written an ancient curse, dare not enter Mortal men, or forsake thy living soul, as tributes Offering at the altar, of the Arachnid Queen. At midnight's twilight hour, under the moon's elliptical Shroud of illusions, is exposed isolation's Forbidden tomb of...
