I killed a spider today. It was in my room because it loved me. I saw it crawling nearby, and reached for a needle. It looked up at me and adored me. I stabbed at it, as it crawled along my floor. Eventually I brushed at it with my hand, to stop it from moving. It recoiled, pulling back into a loose ball of arachnid fear. Because it was now holding still, I pushed the pin into it ' s heart. I heard the skeleton crack and leak, but the blood did not reveal itself. This spider keeps the blood on scraps of paper.
Many months pass, as the pin measured slowly the distance through the organs.
It still loves me, but with my other hand I open the door to my room. Even in a haze it knows I will leave. It hates itself because it knows it is just a bug to me, that it could never embrace me. It wants to, wants to make me smile, make me happy. I lean forward as I push on the needle, and this spider reaches past the pain towards me. The pin pushes through the other side of it ' s body. I rise to leave, and the last vision of the shriveled thing on the ground is the back of my head. |
