arachnicity
think of the spider
industrious & unafraid
like a thief in the night
breaking & entering at will
leaving not a trace behind
that cobweb in the corner ceiling
now that’s a piece of art
snap it w/your iPhone
turn perfection into a tidy profit
courtesy of nonfungible token
of course the female
is the brains of the operation
birthing hundreds if not thousands
in one fell swoop
her counterpart [on the other hand]
a bit of a dufus
racing across a wooden floor
or swinging from the chandelier
november two thousand twenty-three
