Latrodectus

poem by: Gilbert J. P. III
Written on Jan 07, 2019

Spin my web round your head,
Delicate fragile legs,
Difficult tangled spread,
Dangerous spinnerets,

                      I don't fe-el,

Fell for my earthen eyes,
Watchin' you bide the time,
Shadows hide your demise,
Liquefy your insides,

                      My next me-al,

Tell me which one is worse,
Death or living my curse,
Hang one night with me first,
Beautiful silken hearse,

                      Nothing's re-al,

All I need is one bite,
                            One bite,
                            One bite,
                                   One.

Thanks Frank, I was inspired by this girl's voice that once graced my fuzzy eardrums. It made me feel like a defenseless fly, heavy from poop gorging.

Picture me as a Snow Globe, Like the round ones you can hold, Peer inside to see my scene, Shaken up from diss-psych-ope-amean, Trappin’ ‘side the torrent, Tormented I don’t shiver, Bitter cold blood, Fro... Read more
