The Web of La Sanguinaire and Other Arachnid Horrors by Ronald Kelly
Where do the spiders go at night?
Do they creep and crawl through the bushes and trees?
Up the porch posts and across the eaves?
Do they scramble inside? Skitter soundlessly down the hall?
Do they enter your bedroom, climb the bedcovers and wall?
Do they drop from the ceiling, shivering and cold?
Do they find your mouth open and think
“What a lovely abode…”
