Spidey Senses

The time is nigh, this is the hour
to put away the childish things
When given a gift, when given power,
with responsibility, he swings.

Fate brought Peter to be a freak
An arachnid in human form
Now he's a man but still a geek
and he is ready for the storm.

The spider man is wrought with guilt
and broods with dark regret
for the sticky past of webs he's built
and every tragedy he's met.

Clinging to hope, clinging to walls
his inner strength is just enough
to sense that fear... it has no claws
Heroes are made with super stuff.
