The Spider's Last Dance

Much to my surprise
the cute little spider
dancing on my chin
waved her hairy legs
to say hello!

All the while  
two rows of eyes  
pooled lovingly up  
at the darkness  
inside my nose

I wanted to ask  
why she was dancing    
all alone?  

Too bad I sneezed
and now it seems
her heady days are over
the way she's walking on the floor
looks like she's hung up
those dancing shoes
for good
