Spiders
Chloe Pick
I’ve always been fascinated by spiders.
They crawl and creep and seem to be universally hated.
They are also free to roam and explore
and live.
Perhaps I want to be a spider.
I would get to see everything and everyone.
I shan’t care about the scowls and stroppy glances.
Why care about all that
when I am freer than any of them ever will be?
When none of them are brave enough to try and smile at the spider?
It seems quite clear that I have quite the adventure ahead of me.
