mechanical kind - had a number of

radiating legs and bi xenon eyes

eight of each to be exact; even had

digitalized venom of the non-toxic

type; however to do its victims in

it built a web of fiber optics - could

be seen from miles around at night

The robotic spider operated

automatically with humanlike skills

and with those, would soon prove to

be its downfall; couldn't even reproduce

for all it left were AAA batteries; and

then because it wasn't UL tested, one

day it short-circuted; exploded, its

remains vacuumed up and disposed

of in the nearest dust-bin . . .
