Saw daddy longlegs tonight in the autumn cold, asked him if it was alright.

He said, “It is cold outside.”

“You can stay in, if you promise not to crawl into my mouth while I sleep.”

Daddy promised, and crawled into my ear giving birth to a hundred young.

I woke up as they gestated and asked, “Why?”

It just laughed at me and said goodbye and “Revenge will be mine”.
