ARACHNID

ARANEA

By EssiePublished 11 months ago 1 min read
self-portrait (joking...)

Webbing arthropod

Scuttle down for me

Rotten eating caught in your fangs

Raining heavy, heavy onto me

Scuttle down, webbed one,

For me

Legged many, aranea, glider

Folks don't let you see higher

Eating words of a time gone dead,

Webbing scuttle, you'll be got by the sniper

Bloody walls, of a webbing weak

Scuttle down for me

Swallowing hungry words from hungry folks

A time gone dead, webbing the wiser

Legged many, à plusieurs pattes

Aranea scriptor, Spider Writer

About the Creator

Essie

Brambling, atypical logorrhoea that really materialise in the form of hatching worms. Or stars.
