arachnid artistry

CATEGORY

intricate silken strands emanate
from within spidery creature
inducing a most fascinating
construction of nearly invisible
yet strong as thread bare steel
a whirled wide web
devised to entrap unsuspecting prey
to ensure survival of this architect
waiting in the wings
for some delectable meal
perched unawares from what organism
will find itself trapped
among radial silvery wires
which aesthetic
geometrically perfect skein
unblemished even whence one
or more innocent winged vagabond
makes one last flight
into said sticky gauzy maze
fighting to free itself
yet only becoming
more helplessly entangled
until final effort
thence preserves fully intact
a future meal
without breaking
the elusively delicate
incredible linked raiment
akin to miniature internet
unwittingly becoming
a figurative sacrificial lamb
thus paying homage to unsung hero
to self taught cobbler
of exotic spherical tapestry.
