Spider in …?
Zaslow Crane
Crablike, the spider ventures out-
Only to scuttle back out of reach when I see him.
Every effort to catch and relocate or at least kill him has failed.
Who knows how long he’s been in there?
I only noticed him last week.
What must he think with all that pounding right above his head?
-And knowing that “death” might be waiting for him.
Perhaps now he’s reconsidering his decision.
Who knows why he moved in there in the first place, but
now that I know exactly where he is, I kind of wish he’d leave.
But even with all this pounding – my fingers on the keyboard- I’ll never know if he’s still in there, or really gone.
