Undulating acrobat,
On silken threads
she deftly treads
across the great abyss
and so creates a
masterpiece of
glistening perfection,
hidden in plain sight.
Beware the tender trap!
It will ensnare
and so beware
this fatal beauty
resting in the center
of her universe…
she is the weaver
of silken death.

She is, isn’t she. I like this silent danger.
And then I noticed the list of the blogs you follow on the right, and I noticed that it corresponds to mine down to a T. And so now I wonder: either every visitor of yours can see their own list of the blogs we follow ourselves rather than the list of the blogs you follow, or you stalk me and pounce on every new one as well, in the same order. 😀 In any case – strange!
I’m talking about the list below. Is it the same for everybody? Do you see the same list up on the right?

Thanks. I’m not sure what you are viewing but most of these I follow; however there are some I don’t even recognize.

Okay I just checked my blog page and the blogs I follow are not the same as yours there. Somehow the way you are viewing the post is still connected to your own blog.

Yep, that’s what I thought. WordPress is showing me the blogs I follow. How peculiar!

I think it is from viewing in your Reader. Sometimes, at random, they toss a bunch of comments into my Spam folder too, like today. 🙄

The names exactly correspond to the last 20 blogs that I started to follow recently. I just find it strange, nothing else.
Another thing: if I click on your name in your comment, it still links to your previous blog (Tropicalaffair) instead of to your current one. I wonder if you’d prefer to change this.

I’m not sure why that is since it originates from the new blog…I know things are different when I view posts from my reader as opposed to going directly to the blog site via a browser.

I believe you can change in your settings where your comments lead to, which blog of yours.

Spiders scare me to death, but their webs fascinate me. Go figure. And yes, a spider’s silk is incredibly strong. Amazing photo with an equally amazing poem.
“The Weaver of Silken Death”…….doesn’t that sound like a great book title?

Thank you Deborah. I’m so glad you liked this one. I love capturing spiders in webs. Its at least a metaphorical payback. 😉
