Mother Knows Best (poem)

They said my baby was sick,
Should have known it was a trick.
They said they could fix her for free
I did not have the money to pay the big boss man,
you see,
So stupidly I said "please do it for free"

Now it's too late to see the giant
f a b l e.
"My" baby lies on my kitchen table
That baby on that table does not remember me
And likewise,
I do not remember it.
They assure me it is the same
But you know what the others say,
Mother Knows Best, each and every day.
