The Web He
crawled all the way From
a remote nondescript hole In
the ground. He
looked At
the shimmering eel-like wall And
then At
the skyline Where
it met the sprawling expanse Of
the snow-white ceiling Ah!
What a prospect! What
a challenge! What
a life up there! What
a life down here!
His
clumsy legs Itching
to scale the heights His
weary eyes Watering
at so bright a site. He
fell up He
climbed down He
fell up He
climbed down He
fell up…
At
the summit At
last He
stood imprisoned In
the web Of
his making Knowing
not where He had gone wrong. ~Ravi Dhar~
