spider web

the spider web
in my shed was so large
that when I walked
into it
I couldn't get out.
there I was stuck next
to beetles and flies,
a bird or two,
a little kid
from down the street
and an old lady
who used to live
next door
who must have been
nosing around.
hey, I said. how long
have you been here.
a long time the kid said,
like maybe ten minutes.
I came in to get my
ball today
and got stuck.
the old woman
was sleeping, so I
didn't want to wake
her up.
how big is this spider?
