It wasn’t their choice

A Spider thrown from the spider’s web
Even if it wasn’t construction of its design
Didn’t want to leave what was forcibly left
Wasn’t its choice to leave home behind

The neighboring ants, bees and beetles
Can try to be helpful as they think they can
But spiders are only ancestors of insects
They rather chose support in fight than in run

Unlike insects, they do not have antennae
They don’t understand safe battle under heavy fire
Fightless war is a dollar-foolish even if wise-penny
The force of army put in by Putin is dire!

As spiders are grateful for shelter for many of them
And the tolerance for heat is huge for the rest
They don’t need an enemy that is condemn
They need help in getting rid of unwanted guest

When Spiders thrown from the spider’s web
As they are grateful for neighbors helping
If they should have a multigenerational debt
So let it be for the help in fighting

As many children got new beds on exile
As many bedrooms have been bombed before
As many mothers are still trying to smile
As many fathers were killed in fight for home

A spider thrown from the spider’s web
Could learn to live without spinning silk and swinging
But predator’s appetite will follow them
On the way to where they stay all species will be eaten

Spiders didn’t want to leave what was forcibly left
Wasn’t their choice to leave home behind
Wasn’t to barricade neither to be dead
The web is broken regardless number of papers signed
