The House Wide Web
Some spider webs in our house
Are permanent installations
That have been up there so long
I’ve named them constellations
The largest is Webus Major
Made by a little nipper
That crawls around all day long
On what I call the silk dipper
One of my faves has got to be
The Arachnadromeda shape
And it may be the oldest
Above on the ceiling scape
Speaking of the oldest, there’s been
In the corner for an eon
Full of wings and fly gut things
The great Gossamer Orion
I’ve tried to show some of my friends
My constellations in training
And two guys, to my surprise
After drinking, took turns naming
My wife’s no fan of cobweb ‘stars’
Lately, I can barely trust her
Like when she asks for a ladder
While toting her new dust buster
