#100poeticanswers 91: Do Spiders Blink?

The full question was “what I’ve always wondered is, do spiders blink?”. I like that this was a long pondered conundrum.

I’ve got eight legs.

I’ve got eight eyes.

I’ve got a web

For catching flies.

An eye on that

I need to keep 

Don’t even shut

All eight to sleep

So no I never

Even blink.

Sometimes, however,

I might wink.
