An Evening with the Spider Man by Justin Walsh
I pulled the first for it was fun
The second now as I’d begun
The third just came off in my hand
The fourth snapped like an elastic band
The fifth was pure and simple pleasure
The sixth saw me wishing he had eleven
The seventh was for all of the blue bottle flies
The eighth as I lay with him by my side
Motionless, legless only then did he cry.

Love it. Simple, strong, witty & slightly disturbing.
