I Cannot Say

It sits,

As it spins

In the veil of night

It thrives,

As it survives

On the liquefied viscera

Of its prey.

Its many eyes

watch

As its many joints

Crack

Its many arms and legs

Bend and move

As it crawls

And climbs

Silently

It speaks,

Inaudible words

Slide past its teeth

And the venom drips

As it breathes

With piecing fangs.

I dare not say its name.
