Halloween Poem # 12...Creepy Crawlies

Disembodied hands
Creeping up the alley way
Deadly spiders too
Poison snakes and scorpions
Crawling 'round on Halloween

SPIDERS

in mind’s complex spin
testing mortal deduction
this patient spider

at my shower time
old daddy legs drops a line

Premium Member Thought of the day

plot each thought ego begot
it but affirms what we’re not
a spiders web, by mind spawned 
not God’s light that in heart dawned

Recluse

She says she hates those
Wretched spiders and their webs
But she hath much in common
Threadbare words homespun
Envy of Ariadne

Spiders

Glistening diamonds

reside in the holes

underground seekers

spin webs down below

whispering tales

of forgotten echoes

QUESTIONS



Who can a spider spy?
I, the fly, with my little eye?
Why do flies fly?
And spiders spy?

Without Spiders

Without spiders the

world would be over run

with insects and no food

for us to eat,

we need spiders as

they need us.

over cloudy day
lake shadows in somber mood
cat tails hiding

frog takes friendship nap
a bald eagle silhouette
spiders eat their flies

Premium Member Wrong Way

A stranger is such a surprise!
I see the terror in your eyes.
You will know my law.
You will meet my claw
And nourish the spiders and flies.

Arachnophobia

Spiders prowling silently
Their next meal close to snatch
Ugliest formed creation 
Vilely waiting for their next feast to catch 

I hate spiders!

Right Place But the Wrong Time

Sometime spiders make bad bets
when they trap files into their nets
And as they seize the victim’s wing
 there’re cruelly killed by hornet’s sting.

Premium Member In the Ebb and Flow of It All

in the ebb and flow of it all…

worms
have their holes
spiders
have their webs
what
we have
nobody knows:
injustice
still flows—
justice ebbs

Secret Agents

Spiders are best known
For taking untravelled paths
For fresh feast of flies

Rats take the paths worn
And every crumb I lost reclaim
Bad habits for death

An eighteen-inch trilobite, which is me.
Related to spiders and crabs….tee hee.

If you want me, I’ll be in the sea.

Spiders

Spiders she can't abide.  Petrified, 
she applied insecticide inside; 
but then came all undone 
when a really big one 
tried for a ride down her hide outside.

Sin, Ur Gee

In the Grand Scream of things we all fear
Snakes, spiders, and insects doth appear
But one little sin
Can come waltzing in 
And destroy everything we hold dear
sin

Premium Member Trap Door Spiders

Trap door spider I ponder your fate
Your wife comes to save you, seconds too late.
As a favor, this is what I will do.
I’ll send her to heaven, with the same shoe.

Flatter Down

With your mouth to stop my sleep
I be as silent as the grave
Cheek by jowl
I hunger for the truth
unlike this silent appareil
that devoids the last  spiders return

Premium Member Large Spiders

People fear large webs Created from huge spiders When spiders come back To see what they have captured People quickly run in fear

Double Double Toil and Trouble

Munching on spiders and nibbling on rats
Riding spiked brooms high in the air
Back in motion in the witches lair
to bring my cauldron to a boil and feed my black cat

Premium Member Freedom ride

A freedom ride 
winding down roads 
the sound of pipes screeching 
wind at my back 
my hair like a spiders web 
I don't fear anything 
I am engulfed in the moment
