The deflated sequence of letters
So commonly premeditated
But rarely unvarnished
The strewn and dismembered
Limbs of the arachnid
I explicitly meant to unshackle
The sum of the facets
Of a malleable and carmine
Foreshadowing
The pattern of my gait,
Ataxic and absorbed
With passivity
A godless trinket
For the marring
Of my utopia

i really loved the last verse
A godless trinket
For the marring
Of my utopia

For the marring

spider: inelegant & lachrymose,
but it makes a charming tapestry;
your verses glow cochineal...

Wow, this is excellent. Verbose yet comprehendible, a delicate balance. Not very often I read poetry that impresses me.
