fly in the web
I back away
from him
fly in the web
I back away
from him
the moon fades
into my nightmare…
damp pillow
news of her death
the fear
of hearing it
heat lightning
now I know
you won’t
hard frost
the chill of his grip
on my wrist
witching hour
the crackle
of candy wrappers
autumn chill
wondering how much
to tell you
waiting room
a fly
in the cobweb
morning star
how the fear
fades

asking you to leave
one bruised apple
left in the bowl
