“Once you begin watching spiders, you haven’t time for much else.” E.B. White
Her Net Is Cast Watch out moon, you're much too close, nothing an orb likes more than collecting golden orbs, and though the night is darker now, you shine the clearest path, and she may suddenly dart across her gossamer road and snare you unawares, her net is cast and you are near, beware her hidden smile. ©Paul Vincent Cannon

Bloodcurdling – Word of the Day
Photo: http://www.mirror.co.uk
Sitting contented,
sipping a mellow red
staring out the window,
as Peer Gynt is coming to apotheosis,
when my senses are rent,
shredded, jangled,
as a bloodcurdling “aaiieee”
pierces the air.
A portent?
I run,
imagining the worst,
apprehensive, heart pumping,
I push through the door,
not knowing what carnage I might find,
and confused,
taking in the incongruous scene,
I burst into laughter,
a spider on the floor,
my wife on a chair,
eyes dilated in terror,
speechless and
pointing a deadly shoe.
The spider released,
whiskey in hand,
some smooth Dianna Krall to
unjangle with.
