Thanks for your insights. Part of being a science teacher is it helps my
observation skills. This summer, I am going to study Astronomy at the U. of
Calif. Irvine. Last year, it was Oceanography.

many. I really like the opening: it's so matter-of-fact but it actually
makes me think a lot about spiders, their function and I'm intrigued by your
description of her standing on stiff limbs because it's something I've never
noticed and it's a curious image which feels observed and I believe. So the
beginning grabs my attention and all the more so for its apparent simplicity
- something I feel I should have noticed before but haven't. Perhaps, in
part, that's what poetry's about. The last line isn't necessary for me but I
appreciate that it is for you.
