Ode to a spider.



Here is a picture of a spider that, until recently, resided beneath some wooden stairs in our backyard. It looks poisonous, doesn't it? Sure does. Well, let me tell you something, dear reader: It has mysteriously disappeared.

A bit of history: The spider was first spotted along the side of the house, between the driveway and some unidentifiable and unruly pink blooms. Then, it was suddenly beneath said wooden stairs. Once, I saw it wrapping a fly in its web stuff. Now, I don't know where it is. Let's recap. First: side of house. Then: beneath some stairs. Now: ?

That is all.

PS--click on the picture to enlarge it so that you may appreciate nature's beautiful terrors more fully.
