KA Rees #3 - On Fattening the Spiders


On Fattening the Spiders


The house spiders need to be fed.
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.

    how 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
