Entrapment
She spun her web around him –
entrapping him as he slept.
Every night she sipped a bit of him –
draining his will to ever resist.
Is it love that keeps him home –
or deficiency in his blood?

I know. It was too obvious. Writing myself a few post-it notes:
– be cleverer
– be abstracter
– be less corny

I just finished reading your book. It won’t be the last time I read it, or the last time I purchase it. It wasn’t what I expected at all, but I was thrilled. Just beautiful. Thank you so much.

That’s a lovely thing to say! I’ve read your book three times today, and it was the first ebook I’ve ever read. It’s a classic. Can’t say enough good things about it! But I’m very touched that you dedicated it to your father. You have an honourable heart.

This poem is one of my favorites! The end is quite funny — love? Or anemia? It’s difficult to tell them apart. \”/

Thanks Fly! Lol. Anemia and love are hard to tell apart 😜. Even doctors have to run all sorts of tests to determine which one it is. Good one, darling. xo

Is it arachnoid week? I must have missed the memo. I have decided to answer your question, “Is it love that keeps him home – or deficiency in his blood?” After a thorough examination including vitals, complete blood chem profile, manogram (I like to be thorough), and doppler ultrasound, I have concluded it was a combination blood born pathogen, fibrocystic changes in his manly possession, arterial plaque in the common carotid creating a clear state of hypoxia (decreased oxygen to the brain causing a state of fatigue) and finally and most importantly a clear case of “LOVE” and adoration. He chose to remain and offer himself as proof of his love! She, however, might want to reconsider based on all the findings that went undetected until Dr. Colter was called on the scene. 🙂

What with the web, the emotional attachment and the blood loss, I don’t think he’s going to be going anywhere for a while.

I think that’s what the spider woman intended all along… women are crazy as it is, but when you throw in some spider characteristics, then there’s no predicting anything! 😀
