Tarantula

By Chase

I am black and elusive.

I wonder if the snakes are out.

I hear spider-eating birds flying around me.

I see birds soaring in the sky.

I want small gooey lizards for dinner.

I am tarantula.

I pretend I am going to attack.

I feel the ground shaking.

I touch the soft moss on the trees.

I worry about my relatives.

I cry because someone is chasing me.

I am black and elusive.

I understand I am going to get caught some horrible day.

I say I am scary.

I dream I am as big as an okapi.

I try to be invisible.

I hope I can find baby lizards to eat.

I am black and elusive.
