We watched a spider inch up the wall <br />It was maybe seven feet tall <br />To us that ment nothing at all <br />To him it's a horrible fall <br /> <br />'It was supposed' I came to decide <br />We witnessed a spider's suicide <br />I was sure he hadn't much time <br />But thats no way to end his climb <br /> <br />Another crawled into your throat <br />When he left there was no note <br />His fellow silk makers said 'We thought it was just for show' <br />His motives his family will never know <br /> <br />His daughter walked into all our foot trafic <br />The scene didn't look all that tragic <br />I'm sorry I'm not more sympathetic <br />To care about a fucking spider when I have other things to worry about<br /><br />Dan Walters<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/why-don-t-you-go-and-cry-2/
