Little spider on the wall,
Why I wonder don't you fall,
Could it be a special shoe,
Or perchance, arachnoid glue?

But then again, does it matter,
When with this book, I do you splatter,
Little spot upon the wall,
Why I wonder don't you fall...

Thanks for taking care of that spider for me cause before I knew it he would have found his way to my house. Really enjoyed.

I love this, Mike! So you found out that the spider glue is actually kept 'inside' the spider and when it's smashed, the glue is dispersed! Wonderful poem!

I see you smattered all in glue
For all the squishing you would do.
But if you think that spider's gone
Be sure that all post mortem spawn

Throughout vast web will seek you out;
In chambers' corners spun no doubt.
For spiders squished, revenge is sweet
Li'l spiderlet's arachnoid treat

Well, don't let it fall here. I hate creepy crawley things. Even if they are a blot.
