Healthy Spider

I have people who say they miss my writing about the ducks in the back.  This year, I have the spider (or he has me).

It seems spiders are part of the picture this year, particularly that one black spider living between the window and screen.  How he does it, I don*t know.

The spider works his territory

Between the window and the screen.

I am still not sure

How or what he eats.

Somehow he is the spider picture

Of health.

I imagine Healthy Spider magazine

With articles on finding prey

In difficult situations,

Ways to live fully

Without a web,

And even

The advantages

Of limits.

I might even buy a copy

And read

Between the lines.
