    The Ties That Bind

    The ties that bind can be soft indeed
    and yet woven as webs of steel
    by the might of the spider's cunning,
    and trapping his helpless prey he bides his time.
    wrapping her in gossamer threads, ethereal and yet unbreakable, mesmerized in his grasp,
    she knows not that she is already his.

    i like compact poems that impress snapshots that last long.

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
