Temptation spider island

Spiders cannot get preventative Botox
Stubborn spiders insist on
a landscape of eggshells glued together
colonized by spider dignitaries
in beige uniforms who subjugate
their dysgenic spider subjects
Spiders want plastic surgery—
claw augmentation surgery—
spider legs with claws surgically attached
This is the idea anyway
at the spider plastic surgery clinic
right by the rifle retailer down the road
from the stupidest castle
The stupidest most childish spider castle
How can I be more specific
It's beige
Light beige and dark beige with
beige interior and no windows
Residence of pathetic village spider the
Great Reteller of stories who finds it
impossible to describe a
Naked Human Body specifically with
specific language
Accident-prone spider tragically
addicted to spider adrenaline
Illusory spider who believes she exists
I wish I could crank them out like
Sexy Little Spider and her
picture painted language that is so
specific the way it paints
a picture
Collectivist spiders politically organized
believe they are a single organism
Spiders without ego
at least that is what
they tell themselves
Spiders without memory
