2000
3rd in the 'Watch Out! 2000' competition
It all begins in a tapestry of frenzied neon spiders.
All their eyes glowing, all their legs woven.
Twisting nakedly, brokenly suddenly. Brilliant.
Breathing in their coloured spidery way.
Fangs, talons, mandibles, jaws of the Orient.
Dragonic mystical silks. Gossamer dreamcoats.
Precious orbs spew forth sticky webs.
Censers release a floating geometric swirl into the night.
Sounds like, screaming.
