Spiders
Mere spiders
Incapable of affection.
I say nay to
Those accusations and know in
My heart that my love is
With Nerub now. Kingdoms come crashing down
But the love of a spider
A mere spider, no more,
Lives on in the
Light of the
Alien moon.
I
Am a
Spider, a mere
Spider, a smudge, a
Thing to be put
Aside. We spiders love too,
Though perhaps not as you do.
Treat us as you would yourselves, for
We are survivors of lost kingdoms
Left here, alone, simple survivors
Last of an empire
Alone under an
Alien moon.
I
Have loved
One, She who
Spins Webs of Silk.
She is gone now, with
Nerub now, tormenting me ceaselessly, forever.
Never shall I see her again, my
Love, my only, my dear
I am left alone to
Wander here, a stranger
Lost, hopelessly lost
Lost under the
Alien moon.
