“The Spider Spins” by Sean Karns
In its foliage, the spider rides the vibratingweb. It is patient and waits Buddha-like,as if it knows something greater—that survival requires less consumption,that survival is basic— therefore its needsare minimal. When its hunger is met,it is blessed, so much so, it wraps its dead in silk.It seems simple, the spinning of the web.The spider’s world is instinctual—it ignores the chaos-order beyond its web.
