The spider’s jaws kept working
While eight string-like (thread-like) legs
Wriggled on the sidewalk,
Unaware that they were not
Connected to the main body anymore.
I didn’t even think about
Looking into its eyes.
They were so small.
When I slapped my dog’s back-end
For digging a hole,
She looked up at me
And our eyes connected.
I hate smacking my dog.
Sometimes, though, the communication
Between us is non-existent
And my dog suffers for it.
She knows why she dug a hole.
I don’t.
Humans think themselves so smart.
Those spider legs knew why
They wriggled.
