Sense Sonnet - Chiller

Space Spiders

Astro spiders did go to space
In 1973 to
Be the first for the human race
To study webs that spiders do.
In Skylab, Arabella and
Anita wove their weightless weave.
Finer than normal silk was spanned,
And both girls got their webs achieved.
But human crew members did not
Give enough water to them, so
Death was the spiders' final lot.
Humans can be dumb - doncha know!

Spider like ETs may soon come,
And make us humans look more dumb.
