This is a small piece written for those of us who have had the disinctt pleasure of having been bitten by a spider. Specifically a "brown recluse". Their bite is quite painful and the after effects not much better
I had the distinct pleasure of a formal introduction.
One of the eight legged little beasties paid my couch a visit while I was reading.
I felt the bite and slapped at my leg.
It was too late, it got me just by the knee instead.
I was allergic it seems, I started to itch.
I went to emergency, got stuck with IV.
6 hours later I well on my way
Meds are prescibed and I'm loopy as hell.
Now leg is sore and the skin will die.
Another new scar as if I don't enough.
Well watch out for those eight legged beasties.
Their bite is no fun
They you should shun!!!
