Brenda

Today
I let a spider
Walk onto my open hand
And with it sitting peacefully there
Walked from the bathroom
Into the living room
And said
"Should i,
As a slightly
Arachnophobic individual,
Be doing this?"
My friend, said nothing
Other than
"I don't think
Youre an arachnophobic
Anymore!"
Ive called her Brenda
(The spider that is, not my friend)
I'm now fearful
That she'll be trodden on
And hope i don't tread on her
Or wake up with her
Or find out
That's she's a
Barry!!!!!!!
Brenda
The transgender
Spider
Hope she's not swallowed by an old lady
