spiderweb

the bf found the world's largest spider in his backyard.

we stopped and stared at the web, silky and sparkly, that was spun from the grass to some wire* above his house.

days of rain followed.

we went back out and wondered if the web was still there.

i stood in the spot, and squinted. i couldn't see it, but that didn't mean it wasn't there.

for a moment, i considered running at full speed into the "web."

why?

because if i bounced off it, the web would still be there. obviously.


*i don't know what kind of wire: clothesline, telephone? i just told you that i think spiderwebs are stronger than me. what am i, an electrician?
