A beautiful sight, created by a dangerous creature.

The spider weaves, the spider winds
A perfect web, a web that binds
Others to herself.

Such a mesmerizing sight
This silken shimmer in the moonlight.

But this beauty is tainted—
A black widow has painted
This image of perfection.

Luring others to their doom
On her sticky weaving loom.
