Ocho the 7 legged spider (my killerpix contest entry + haibun)

moeknows (60)in #killerpix • 7 years ago (edited)

This is Ocho, the seven legged spider. He lost his leg when a human tried to stomp him out of irrational fear. As he tried to escape, he ran into an electrical outlet leaving only a single leg exposed. Lightning struck just as the human crushed his precious appendage. The lightning simultaneously electrocuted both the spider and the human leaving the human lifeless and Ocho with super-spider powers. He was gifted with immortality and the humans' thirst for vengeance. Since then he has haunted the realm of man relentlessly, sinking venomous payloads in unsuspecting victims as they slept.

Ocho fears nothing except for the flash of lightning. This photo was taken during a lightning strike as Ocho was on the prey. He is still out there...still waiting for revenge.

Rest easy humans
Tonight you will feel my wrath
Ocho is coming

A haibun is a poem consisting of some amount of prose followed by a haiku.
