So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

Who can disagree. | Spider Poem Wednesday. 11.9.11 12:39 pm Every young spider must choose a corner Choose a corner in which to build her life In which to build her life, her web, to take her chances To take her chances that insects will come. Maud was no different, she chose a corner A dark corner, filled with debris A debris-filled bathroom corner, behind a pipe Taking her chances that insects would come. But the web of Maud stayed empty The carefully woven web of Maud that would catch anything The web of Maud stayed empty And the insects did not come. The multi-eyed spider mind of Maud filled with doubt About the corner, about the instincts Which made her gamble on this corner Despite the insects that did not come. Yet Maud tended her web Her perfect web that would catch anything And Maud grew hungry For insects that did not come. A spider's web will do its hunting Unless the bathroom walls are well-sealed And the window is closed And there are no insects there to come. Maud did her own hunting Ranging to distant corners, where her web might have been She might have built her web in other corners Where the insects might have come. Somebody left the light on, accidentally Somebody left the light on, and the window open just so And the bathroom was filled with insects And the web was filled with insects For a spider that did not come. 6 Comments. This makes me SAD » middaymoon on 2011-11-09 05:36:39 This makes me SAD » middaymoon on 2011-11-09 05:37:41 I don't like spiders :( But, good poem indeed. » Midnight on 2011-11-09 07:57:28 I like the poem ... it made me think of the spiders that liked to live in our old bathroom ... except there was no window so I'm not sure how they survived in there. re: It is a bit sad, but I agree with RJ too. It's nice having the memory, but this is the opportunity to make new ones. » LostSoul13 on 2011-11-10 01:55:42 Somewhere... deep inside... that poem terrifies me. Shame about the Japanese girl. And to think about how many Japanese business men have walked across entire concourses out of their way to make sure we got the right place. I guess, at least, you got to pay it forward. » jinyu on 2011-11-10 11:04:48 Oh my god. Did you write this?? It's freaking brilliant. » The-Muffin-Man on 2011-11-11 02:43:16
