My Blog and FB friend, Nandan Tavnandi, clicked this amazing photograph of a spider doing its thing at the Karnala Bird Sanctuary, on the Mumbai-Goa Highway.
Besides spiders, who actually hold copyright on the word "web", we have lots of webs today, including the deceitful ones woven by those who call themselves politicians.
I just though the spider might have something to say about that........

for a living,
painstakingly
against several odds.
Its probably
a very laborious way
of catching your prey
and getting your next meal.
But I see some
who emulate
and weave such spurious webs,
not to source
the next meal,
but the next million.
They do not weave themselves,
but get
helpless minions
to do that,
in the process,
messing the view
for anyone trying to look through.
Of course,
sometimes
there are holes in my web
which
really become
loopholes in theirs,
and they miss them
in the excitement
of power networking
round and round the centre.
Folks with evolved cerebral cortii,
leaving loopholes
versus
me of the gosammer net
with holes.
King Arthur would have been
proud
of the holes in my web.
