yaintnoappleseed


he took her web when she last disappeared  after she reappearedmissing for several weeks an returned missing her foremost two left legs

appleseed lived in it for more than a year which boggled his mind 

she maintained it

it was immaculate

he found her ditched mummies laying on the countertop of the washbasin  

her immaculate informed his  


yaintnoappleseed as he called this clown  clambered in one day ran off a smaller spider an seemed content in its dissembling squalor

he couldnt imagine any selfrespecting spider wouldnt provide a minimal due diligence  the gaping holes an fraying hadnt the integrity to trap let alone hold a soul                                          

though sooner or later one way or another hed depart 

he wouldnt take any action against him

it was just a matter of time



he missed appleseed

he particularly missed her when he took hot baths in the evening under candlelight

she was intrigued with the flickering flame 

often he watched her descend from the web an stalk the candle  then withdrawing when she must have felt its heat

shed take her sweet time climbing back up to her corner asif she had been ambling out for a casual stroll

then she had fun articulating her legs throwing odd shadows on the ceiling


he didnt imagine that



thats the way she was

the way it was
