Advice from a Spider

December 17, 2018
By Anonymous

Be big, hairy, and a little scary.

Have a surplus of venom.

Sleep with several eyes open.

Rest after you shed; your skin

will be soft.

Surprise your enemies

Think big (meals).

Search far and wide for a place to spin

your web.

Save snacks for later.  

Be a drifter while you’re young.

Know what and what not to step on.

It doesn’t matter what others think of you.

If your web shakes, investigate.

Don’t worry if your web is torn; you can weave

and repair it.
