Exit

I know not

the grand entrance,

but when I leave

I know how it will be,

not even a faint ripple

on the space time fabric.

in-between ,

a performance subdued.

was it destiny,

or by intelligent design?

I played my part

the way I liked.

does it matter

if I failed or succeeded,

if for even a moment

I did bring a smile

to someone in need,

all the failures,

all the pains,

shall proudly embrace, as

from dust to dust

I return.

Web

Web of lies that I spun
Entrapping people in its deadly grip
Berating my enemies to death

Web I spread far and wide
Ensnaring my victims
Bleeding then slowly till they die

Web world wide helped me spread
Empire that I could not have dreamt
By means ethical to grow full to the brim

Web so devious and bombastic
Empty with false promises trumpeted
Bewildered poor souls bamboozled

Web of mine is attracting new victims
Encircling like a vulture I survey
Bedazzled fools coming to play

Web so strong I weave
Enter at your own risk if you dare
Beware, once in, exit closed forever

Web of steel it is not
Entrapped in it one day I may
But till then time to enjoy and make hay
