Creep

The weavers of the night
Leave their warp strung tight
To sparkle in the morning light

They make the finest silk
From iridescent milk
Like others of their ilk

I stumble through their creel
And shudder when I feel
Their lines, my arms pinwheel

And though I can’t hear
I’m sure somewhere near
One screams, “Get outta here!”
