["Upon a Spider Catching a Fly"](http://www.poetryfoundation.org/poem/175403) by Edward Taylor is an allegory warning of the pitfalls in society. It is about the fact of predatory minds lingering around every corner. The image of a spider's web catching a fly may represent how unaware and weak minds are entrapped by delusions created in human society by predatory minds. The image of a wasp may represent a strong, aware mind, who can fight back the predator's delusions by analytical and critical thinking, ergo rational and objective reasoning based on knowledge. If you are unable to see the web of lies, the spider owns you. If you are able to see the web, you can see the spider - which is the source, and fight it back. You can see the web only if you are aware and conscious. In case you are unaware and unconscious, you will be fighting mindlessly the web, instead of fighting the source, which is the spider, and the web is his delusion against you. Being conscious makes you able to think freely and independently and can allow you to understand the difference between the normal and abnormal sources that control the human society. You will be able to see the web of delusion created by deceiving minds. Knowledge and reasoning is the only power that can make you free and safe against the great delusion. You must detect and expose the sources of the web of lies.
