Masterpiece of Silk

Delicate

is the silk

that takes shape

under the careful eye

of its skillful

creator.

Strong

is the trap

that tricks

its prey under

the disguise

of something

magical.

Clever

is the

creature

that uses

its glands

to weave

a meticulous

masterpiece

that is not only

beautiful,

but

deadly.
