It was father walking through the door
His face turned to a look of horror
As he saw me stood there with a knife
" Why are you in the basement, where I told you not to go."
I simply answered with
" Admiring my art."
" Your."
" Yes, who else would make mother this beautiful."
" This is not beauty."
" Don't let jealousy cloud your feelings father dear,
there is no need as you will soon be as beautiful as mother here."
" I will never be like that if I can help it."
" Oh, you will father, don't you fear."
