I enjoyed reading your poem. I really like the first line. And the continued use of webs to delineate obligations. I used to be able but I did a lot of work on myself. Becoming a psychiatric nurse helped. I do not see any room for improvement. Have a blessed day.

This free verse, Obligations, sees the comparison of the spider's webbing as the kind of relationships one may be obliged to commit to for the long haul. ..............................................

An interesting analogy used in comparing obligations to sticky spider webs you can't pull off.
Vivid description of the obstacles such webs present one with. Indeed both "are not easily shed." Rod

I find this so relevant, and what a unique way of looking at the problem, and so graphically described. You well deserve the six. My sincere congratulations to you for this wonderful piece.
