Spider Spider (A Parody in Form) (Free verse) by Blue Magpie
Spider spider sitting tight
in your hollow out of site
what mere mortal human mite
can stand the poison of your bite.
In what architectural spire
grew thy silken strands of wire
and what inner cavern drear
hatched the dawning of thy fear.
With what secret ancient art
have you girdled round my heart;
and what power from your essence
keeps me still bound in your presence.
What the magic, what the spell
holds me in your living hell
and what angel from on high
could give me back my wings to fly?
And when you're finally satisfied
how can it be that I've not died
or is it just that I forget
and think that I'm still living yet.
Spider spider sitting tight
in your shadow out of sight,
what mere man is there that might,
withstand the wonder of your bite.
