As is with all meshalim, it's open to multiple interpretations, but I will offer what I saw in it and then leave the floor to R' cordnoy:
1) like the spider, we can become so focused on the object of our lust that all rationality goes out the window. We can and have done strange and bizarre actions to satisfy our lust with little or no concern for how foolish we are and look. Ultimately our actions lead to our downfall, and the instrument for our demise is non other than the lust itself. 
2) I had a little too much time on my hands today. BH the only sex I viewed was among spiders.

We prepare for intimacy with the wife.

We flex our muscles.

We tell them how much we love them.

We even give a gift.

Besides the past two days of baths, garbage cleanin', floor sweepin', etc.

Lights are dimmed.

The stage is set.

She devours us. Ouch! No second chance. We cannot tell the tale.

I was gonna write the same - but you're more eloquent (hey I didn't say you're Spiderman) and add that that is why some of us look for escape hatch's / outlets

Sorry, I haven't tapped into the amkus yet.
Even an interpretation of something cryptic is open to interpretation.

third sex dream in as many weeks last night. The 1st 2 were clearly related to persons I saw during the day & I awoke before MZ. I've been trying to be extra vigilant during waking hours to guard my eyes from any triggers that would cause these dreams. Last night dream was nonsensical with people I didn't recognize (probably from a movie months or years ago.) last night ended in wet dream. 
I don't know what this means and how to correct it, or if is should just be considered a normal part of life. Feeling a bit disturbed so I'm posting.

I never really paid much attention to them. It's not in my control. If I recall correctly, learning something or doing something that occupied my mind right before bed helped. I usually have wet dreams if I lust during the day or if I lust right before I go to sleep. But sometimes it just happens.

I let wet dreams destroy my life at one point. Focusing so much on them. Hashem! How could you do this to me!!?
Wait, what? How about the sixty thousand porn movies I watched before I decided to fix my act up? Do they just disappear?
Work on today, like Mayan said. These dreams are just tests now.

I Think the less you think of sex related thoughts before going to sleep should make it easier,
But as Singularity wrote it sure is part of the test we need to overcome (lots of it emotionally).

Thank you to those who subtly and not so subtly pushed the concept of opening up to a real, non anonymous person. Thanks also to those who have discussed their own experiences with this on the forum. I never thought I would, but finally did it today. I hope to elaborate more when I have more time. I feel happy.
