To move the entire rotation of the world around us
To secrete fluid of a transparent nature
And bind one element to another
In the buoyancy and flexibility
Of disturbing the universe
With one, Earth shattering breath
Contorting the fabric, and the great design
To accomplish a feat of delicacy
The building of a spiders web
Yet the disruption of the universe

Hmmmm
Yesss, this is quite amazing.
It's astounding how we manipulate the world around us, especially if it is in our benefit. Each line flows nicely and gently. The images are sharp and concise, the theme is frightening and the depth is profound.

Very deep and somewhat scary thoughts.
