Maggie

Maggie was young and innocent

To look at she wasn't nice

Daddy never talked to her

Mommy ignored her likewise

She never went to school

She wasn't clever or wise

We never called her for lunch

Maybe because she had eight eyes

I know it wasn't her fault

That she was born this way

Mommy was particularly scared

Whether it was night or day

Daddy never really bothered

Whether she was home or away

I never fancied my time

With her to spend or play

We killed her yesterday

No, it wasn't a lot of fun

It would have been easier

Had she not tried to run

Don't look at me like that

No good to judge someone

If you housed a spider

What would you have done?
