TANGLED INSIDE OF THE SPIDERS WEB
The King spins his web
The first line of deceit is sprung
It shimmers
Underneath a starry night
One by one
Every line is strung
As the web spinner
Performs his song
“TANGLED INSIDE OF THE SPIDERS WEB”
Performing his song
While parachuting
His death defying feat
The web he spins
Is finally complete
“TANGLED INSIDE OF THE SPIDERS WEB”
The illusion is bliss
Mesmerized by its shine
Now trapped
Is his prey
Who is struggling out of time….
“TANGLED INSIDE OF THE SPIDERS WEB”
