Spider's Trap

An unsuspecting victim walks along
They don’t realize anything is wrong
Many eyes are watching, waiting to strike
Just waiting for when the moment is right

Suddenly she strikes at this little fool
He doesn’t realize the web was a tool
His own foolishness got him in this sticky mess
But now, in her stomach is where he will rest

Now the spider scurries up her clever trap
It will soon be dinner after an afternoon nap
A little silvery cocoon holds her squirming meal
As he slowly dies, he lets out a scared little squeal

Author notes

I wrote this in seminar (a study hall sort of class) a few days ago. I think it's stupid, but I thought I would post it anyway.

    Actually I'm with you, I hate and am scared of spiders and most insects (besides catepillers). I was just sitting there and then I saw this gross dead spider sitting on the empty desk next to mine and then this weird little poem came to my head.

    I don't think it's stupid, but I wonder if it's about an actual spider or if it has enough irony to uphold human traits? Anyways, its a good description...seminar? is your school christian?? if not I'm sorry for the mistake. Good job

    Superb

    I'm glad you used study hall time to concoct this marvelous tale of a spiders victory and its victims untimely demise. I love the presentation and playful manner you instill. Sometimes, its what we think stupid becomes the greatest work. Well done. Keep writing. The talent is obvious.
