Spiders are Not Insects
Henry Louise Michel - Iowa Park, TX

If there was anything
In Life... some sustaining
Humanitarian device or act
Of human kindness
She could lean on... it was leaving

Her change of seasons or
Figurative cleansing of emotions
Closely resembling spring
Cleansing... closing doors

And more particularly perfect
States of being... between -
Unilateral fields of
Perpetual experiences seeking

Infinite extension... reaching out
Becoming larger but
Frequently pardonable -
More inclusive endings.
