[suspended . . .]

suspended 
on unseen silk
a spider
touches the Tao Te Ching—
mother of ten thousand things

    Not just any poet can connect the Tao Te Ching to a spider! I like your careful choice of wording, such as "unseen silk."

    Thanks, Janet! Really, the spider connected itself by descending onto the book I was reading.
