When I awoke and went into the kitchen
to make coffee, the spider in the corner
the very one I had fed flies that climbed
on the slippery windowpane had grown
the size of a husky, but unlike a friendly
dog it was in no mood to be petted by me.
I who had fed it so lovingly when other
would have killed it on sight. Now it was
waiting for me to be entangled in the web
it had spun to drink my blood and let me
hang there as a warning to man not to tinker
with nature. Called my neighbour who
sleeps with a pump action shotgun, through
the window he shot till every pot and pan
had holes but somehow the spider escaped.

The Illusive Terrorist
