I flutter down
In to your space, you web
You wait for me to be off guard
I pretend your not there

You strike, fangs lined with poison
You fail
I’m flying lightly in the air
And land on another place

You get back up
Ready thins time
You strike, legs tying to hold me down
To slow!

You try one more time
As you get ready you don’t know
I’m right behind you
You turn

I got you
You struggle but give in
You too tired and week
And I’m strong

It the butterfly
That caught the spider
In it own web
How sad
