Spiders... Ew
Rebecca Riley
I killed the spider.
But it deserved it.
It ran across the room,
With speed from the devil.
I am sure it would have killed me…
I killed the spider.
I know it deserved it.
With it’s hairy back,
Arched legs,
Poisoned fangs…
I am sure it would have killed me…
I killed the spider…
But there will be more,
I know this for certain.
I killed the spider,
But more will creep from the darkness,
Smell my sweet blood,
And hunger will make them try and kill me…
I killed the spider,
Let is serve as a warning.
