Ceiling visitor in another year corner spot secured a niche was known a secret spun lowered in the night raised in the day back to corner spot She wept another year for spent vacations turned her head up ceiling vistor consoled her a niche was known a secret spun lowered in the night raised next day another holiday vaporized... The nights passed a front corner preferred for descent a back one chosen for an ascent a slip of the silk it lowered its gaze as the woman spent tears for spent vacations and stale birthday cakes Flies were caught that summer she wept still into thinned cloths but lower eyelids dried with resolution a slip of the silk the spinner met her face in the morning mirror the nights had passed a niche was known she would turn discover a spun secret arachnid traces in her misery... she knew her void it knew its web. |

"ceiling vistor consoled her' I have never read a poem about a relationship between a spider and a person and yet this is absolutely wonderful! |

Do you take it as just a spider? Poetry is rich with metaphors, imagry and allusions. Perhaps it is time then to read about things that you are unfamiliar with... |
