Inspired by Robert Frost's poem "Design" and by the Orb-weaver spiders on Billings Bridge in Ottawa.
lyrics
Meet me tonight out on the bridge
The ice black river sighs
Where wispy webs glint in the dark
Where many moonlit eyes
Peer out at you like spots of ink
Like small friends in surprise
Meet me tonight and lose all spite before the pale sunrise
The world is cruel to tiny things, the ugly the lovely the small
Meet me and see the delicate, the legs that scuttle, crawl
Meet me to see the thing you dread to see upon your wall
And ask yourself what in this night has
“Darkness to appall”
Meet me tonight and don’t be scared, the spiders white and gold
Won’t mind if you arrive to watch them dancing in the cold
Unearthly, strange but in this place existence is so bold
So meet me here and be a child, for soon we will be old
Meet me out in the middle here after all the rain
They’ll come out and rebuild their damaged mansions once again
Meet me tonight out on the bridge
Roll in from where you roam
And take my hand and we will watch them
Spin their small selves home
