quiet unassuming unpretentious little black spider
name of some sort William J. Carraticuss Markham
because opposites do that in this world and ours
sitting on the door frame

sitting on the door frame

had a baby new small boring fly for breakfast
getting tired of flies, maybe a dust bunny to morrow
because monotony is the devil's muse in this world and ours
sitting on the door frame

sitting on the door frame

sitting still for many hours, more hours than known
keeping self occupied sitting in same place same time now and tomorrow
because short lives are obstacles in this world and ours
sitting on the door frame

sitting on the door frame

world out there much bigger than to think about
William J. is a spider quite small, too small for that big world
because comfort is quiet in this world and our world and any world around
sitting on the door frame

sitting on the door frame

quiet unassuming unpretentious little black spider
sitting on the door frame
