On his neck, in ink
a web,
I think,
a tattoo from another clan.
If his plan was to hide it, he
failed and they spied it,
his body being found several days later and
gathered around in the cold on the ground  
the spiders were saying a mass.

I say,
keep wakes for the waking and tattoos for the hearts that are breaking in Swansea or Tyneside,
if you have to hide it don't do it because they'll see right through it and the end will come quickly enough which is all stuff and nonsense and he should have had more sense and tattooed the web on his ****.
