'Swallowed' is just plain nasty. Only for the sheer fact that I strongly dislike spiders. Major EW. Good short story, great gross factor. I do love an authors imagination that makes you think twice about your surroundings and something I take for granted- sleep. Nice going Mark. There went my hopes of a nap. A great short story to add to your tbr list.
