A Spider's Tale

One Saturday we met --
Some friend's apartment.

You glanced my way,
Saying my name twice

Dear Lord!  Did I think?
I drink to people this nice

Who early grow old,
Who told stories and sold

Their recycling at the store.
Origami men arrived before

My date.  Hire a whore --
This one gives me the hives

I'm sick to death of him.
How lucky to have had the chance to sin.

(On Earth as it is in Heaven,
Hallowed be thy name.)
