I am a caterpillar on thread.
at first site you see the spider hiding in the dark corner, luring in prey to it's negative ways other's become interested in the lonesome corner, filled with pessimistic others who've gotten tied up there as well, and so there, you'll find the misery with their company. Then there's the caterpillar. almost floating in mid-air, it'd seem and everyone waits and waits for the caterpillar to evolve to an extravagant natural beauty of nature it's still, waiting. giving off the lovely impression of child-like wonder, dreams, hopes, and all else the others around envy for. Although it's an illusion. The caterpillar lies patient near the web, seeming to be possibly forming it's cocoon soon to become who it's always meant to be. To flutter from smile to smile on each child and give compliment to each flower it settles on. Although the cocoon will never appear. The wings will never appear. It may be hard to see, because of how far it seems to be from the others, but one thread still remains one thread leaving the caterpillar to hang along with the others. one thread leaving it to struggle, as it still brings optimistic thoughts to everyone who waits for a change one thread leaving it to die, waiting until the spider caves in and makes it's final move to wrap and consume the creature that came so close to being truly beautiful. To being complete. But no one will notice the individual thread no one will realize the suffering of the caterpillar until the spiders come to make it clear
