All-aboard the food chain (-o-o-o-o-o-)

(to enlarge images, click)














Spiders work their autumn pre-frost webs
/
On a sunny day over Waukesha’s
/
Thread of the mighty Fox River;





A walking bridge
/
Erected by
/
Some memorialized benefactors
/
Not only transports pedestrians
/
Across the now peaceful river
/
To the farmers market
/
Where they will buy fresh food
/





Tantalizingly, deliciously;


/
The spiders, eight-legged
/
Bridge walkers and builders
/
Energized by the sun
/
Will also snag a morsel
/
Or two
/
Or three
