I was so
Mesmerized by the beautiful
Web you created,
The false delicacy
Bringing me in closer.
(I failed to notice you were a spider)
The way mornings birthlight sparkled like fine crystals on the dew,
The way
Your crafty design shown like a rainbow,
Kaleidoscopic.
(I knew you were a spider)
A comforting touch and hypnotic gaze.
A weaver so gifted and true to your desires.
I did not realize I had become immobile
And transfixed.
(I forgot you were a spider)
I forgot my ex was a snake. Not a spider but a snake in the grass. Beautiful poem my friend
