The Spider:

There once was a spider who lived in the laundry room rafters.
His name was "Speeder".
He was fast and jumped.
One day he jumped into a bucket of water.
And a strange object with perforations,
went underneath him
and he got on the spoon with a flump.
He got lifted higher and higher,
toward the rafters where he lived,
but climbed down the spoon onto a hairy hand,
he got brushed off and fell onto dry land.
He climbed onto a pipe,
speeding up toward his home,
to meet his baby spiders and his wife Philicia 18,
for he does not want to be alone.
Now he is up on the rafters,
where he will live until the hereafter.
