Poetry – I’m back – just when you least expect me!

Poetry – I’m back – just when you least expect me!

I’m back

Scurry   Scurry

Stop and wait

Lurk and hide and plan

Chuckle as they hesitate

Hairy legs will find their man.

 

In dead of night

When all is quiet

I’ll creep from out my lair

Up over the bedspread

Over pillow

Towards the tousled hair

Fangs eagerly dribbling juice

As I crawl across your cheek

To tease your lips with bristly feet

To just disturb your sleep

So that assiduously into your nightmares

Images of me will leak.

I’m back

And I’m bad!

I’ll make you mad!

  1. Hey Opher – The arachnophobia is back again I see. But should you change your perspective, the spider has a unique symbolism relating to: Fate, Time, Craft, Cunning, Cycles, Rebirth, Mystery, Creation, Strategy, Protection, Progress, Resourcefulness, and Intelligence. Perhaps your haunting spider brings you a message relating to one (or a combination) of the above?
