This is an Iambic, free verse 10 line poem. It has a melancholic mood. In this poem i think that persona is the Author. He is comparing his life to that of a spider. on the first stanza he describes how careless, happy and calmed a fly is. looking at the world from a tall observation spot.
On the second stanza he starts to realize that he has no time to do that. he does not take the time to be calm, or careless, he has to entertain the world, and please people. He is lamenting the fact that he cannot have a life like the fly did. Which is ironic because he did have the quiet time to obsreve the fly, to write this poem.
