black widow of the web
suspended tone in an unresolved cadence
cast in a cross rythmn of syncopation
ones and zeros, zeroes and ones
dropped into the ether suspended from a thread
webbed sticky
it ensnared my mind
twisting and turning
further enmeshed by its sticky contaminating confusion
warping to distortion
the reality of a
stunning
killing
silence
what I knew, I discovered, I did not know,
what I did not know, I discovered, I did know;
and what I discovered I knew was cruelly drained
by the black
widow of the web
