Take the Shot

The spider’s eyes are like a doll’s eyes.

As this wasp tracked down and hunted the spider, one veteran of The Battle of Palm Springs and I were preparing a burning, sacrificial homage to ƞіƦỏɓі™, who watched fantastically overhead. Knowing the last living thing this spider would see, besides the wasp that would ultimately see to his demise was me gave me reason to snap his or her photo as the light went out out it’s eye.

The eye of the spider showed defeat and when the wasp dragged the spider under a shrub, I wondered if the spider had a mind anything like mine, and what terrors would be going through that mind, if it did.
