"Arrangements" ... again, such a cold word. I see several scenarios as being possible. First, I think of an affair that has ended badly ... the spider being his wife, trapping him and keeping him from you, the one he really loves. Another possibility is that this is about a couple getting a divorce. The sandbox made me think of a child, so I was wondering if the child might have died or been kidnapped and killed, which led to the parents' relationship falling apart. And now I've forgotten the third story I had in mind. :P <br /><br />Anyway, I always enjoy your work. But I especially like poetry that can be interpreted in different ways.✿https://www.blogger.com/profile/01044032159371976375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4856662679041828863.post-3046292105648768512016-10-06T20:55:56.760-04:002016-10-06T20:55:56.760-04:00Wonderful and interesting imagination :)Wonderful and interesting imagination :)ZQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08521836993023109556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4856662679041828863.post-14174201637943356732016-10-06T20:28:46.497-04:002016-10-06T20:28:46.497-04:00I really like the imagery in this piece.
