Spidersweb

They say you're a nice guy,

And I almost understand.

And yet I can't shake the feeling

That you have something dark planned.

I saw them sitting around you,

Doing what you said.

I know it's part of what you do but

I saw you with marionette thread.

I was scared of you from the beginning.

I saw through all your lies.

You sent out string to capture them,

Then devoured them like flies.

Their minds seemed gone,

They weren't like they were before.

And when I heard you coming to us,

It was all I could do not to slam the door.

And then I found you were playing with us,

And had robbed her brain of all she knows.

And then I realized exactly what prey looks like

When a spider's mandibles close.

And then I saw you look at me,

And you lashed out your thread.

If any of you want to find me,

I'm part of his Spidersweb.
