Up until one century ago there lived, In the Zi Duang province of eastern country A glass-like spider Having devoured its prey it would drape the skeletons over its web In weeks creating a macabre Shrine of remains Its web was also unique in that it had many layers Like floors in a building At the top of this palace-like place, assembled with almost apparent Care, were tiny, shining objects, glass, beads, dew-drops One could almost call it an altar When the breeze blew thru this construction It produced sounds of wailing, crying Tiny wails, tiny cries The baby spiders would get scared and search frantically for their mother. But the Glass Spider would have long gone, having known that the babies Would survive somehow on their own. Oh-The Glass Spider had blue eyes almost like-a human's. They shed tears at the wintered turn of the centuries. Don't you hear this wasted cry, Life is over you (Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone) But you've seen who's in heaven. Is there anyone in hell (Mummy come back 'cause it's dark now) Take care, take care. (Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone) Somewhere she glows divine. Somewhere she wakes alone. But you, you've promise in your lovin' eye. God it's dark now. Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah Gone, Gone the water's all gone Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone Stay low on the ground, fire can drive you, savage and afraid Spitting the dawn, come come come along before the animals awake Run, run, we've been moving all night, rivers to the left. If your mother don't love you then the riverbed might Gone, gone, the water's all gone Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah Gone gone the water's all gone Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone David Bowie - Glass Spider flaming balloons |

I hate spiders. When we got spiders in the house, my wife must kill them. |

eeeeeeeek! You're right, John. It was good ol' Bilbo Baggins who sang this to the giant spiders while saving his friends, the dwarfs. Account frozen... |

I hate spiders. When we got spiders in the house, my wife must kill them. When we had spiders in the house (we means my family & me) I had to kill the spiders, or when I was absent due to work, the elder sons of my wife :-) Account frozen... |

I hate spiders. When we got spiders in the house, my wife must kill them. Same here, in Canada. I have to admit to racism against spiders. (Oh Shame! Oh Shame!) I mean, it doesn't much matter how smart or courteous they may be. If a family of six-foot-tall spiders moved into the neighbourhood, I'd probably sell my property and leave! LOL |

Oh my god. I just had a little spider run across my desk. It was titchy (about the size of my thumbnail) but I've never seen something so small move so fast. I think I scared it off but it scared me more... I hate spiders They tickle when they scurry across my hand.. eek.. |
