Threads of Hope

I am a spider
dangling above a pit,
each thread I spin holding a bit of hope
that
it will be                      
the one                  
that will lead me up up up
to where I want to be,
but knowing that
at any moment
a little snip!
could send me
f

and so I spin
and spin again
hanging my hopes
on tiny threads
that keep me
dangerously
aloft.
