One thing that has been on my mind for a while is whether or not I am spiderkin or spiderhearted.

On one paw, I can see myself being a spider, but I can't place if I would be a specific one or perhaps a spider-cladokin.

On the other paw, I know that I already feel some sort of connection to spiders in general. They do not frighten me, or make me feel disgusted.

I feel a sort of kinship with them, regardless, but determining if I belong as one of them, or just belong among them is the dilemma.

the urge to web my entire room.

The urge to cover every nook and cranny in my cobwebs.

The urge to weave silk into a web.

The urge to make webs.

I'm web-brained right now.

I want to make cobwebs.

COBWEBS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let me go on the ceiling. Let me crawl on the ceiling. I can't grip flat surfaces and that's bullshit. Let me crawl on the walls and ceiling. LET ME GO ON THE CEILING AND CRAWL AROUND. WHAT THE FUCK.

I gently sway as the wind brushes by , letting the small motions soothe me . swaying , swaying , swaying . a leaf among leaves . leave me here , unobserved , invisible to your fleeting human eyes .

I like to curl up in a cozy dark space and play nature sounds, that tends to help me the most!
