Stevie Taite - Response To A Great Poem About Spiders lyrics

I read a poem called ‘spider month' It portrayed the fear, and was a triumph In reply I wrote this poem below (The poet was V. Doherty, so you know) I also dread that time of year But thankful for the flies they clear I wish they'd hide, stay out of sight Not scurry 'cross the boards at night A movement in periphery Makes heart rate rise immediately I'm quick to make my feet retract For fear of them is not an act Perhaps we shouldn't be so hard On keeper of the fly graveyard I have one up upon a shelf I never see him, he is stealth I often have to use a Hoover Just as a dead fly remover He k**s the wasps, he's that hardcore As creatures, I hate them much more As long as he stays out if sight To let him live? I think I might! X x
