On Fattening the Spiders
The flies are not
yet
numerous, they
blunder
through gaps in doors and
windows;
haven’t got buzz
about them yet.
What they lack in
speed
they make up for in
cunning.
The swatter comes
down
to the left. Cha. Right. Cha.
Left again, Cha-
cha-cha.

ReplyDeletehow naked the spider
as it lets down its prey
by ancient ropes and pulleys
and draws the fresh corpse out of sight
to take a first delicious bite
Yummo!
