The long walk brought on an urge,
so I headed into a nearby porta-potty.
Steppedd into the hot green space,
tried to pull a locking thingy closed.
Trying not to smell the environs,
I unzip and let a yellow stream loose.
Standing there pissing, see a white spot
against the green plastic lit up by the sun.
Squinting closer, I see a little white spider.
Gives me a thing to watch as I piss,
sound reverberating, attention riveted
on that tiny white creature lowering itself.
It moves a bit, then turns around, tries to climb,
lowers itself more, hangs in space and rotates...
What kind of universe does it perceive?
Its milky way is this large green KYBO;
Don’t know and don’t care, because
I’m done pissing and zip it up again.
Leave its universe with a push of the door,
perhaps wish it luck making a web or whatever.
My universe contains a beautiful spring day in May,
and I’m going to enjoy it. Good luck,
little white spider suspended in stinky space.
You’ll need it.
