Dizzzzzy Miss Lizzzzzy and the golden hatchett-1

"She was not the thinnest Lizzzy
but her fairness
got them all a bit Dizzzy"

-CIU

The Tale of Miss Borden
a civil war child
she was contentious from the start
hitting dolls with sticks and stones
began she the whacking art

Churchy
she attended church
twice on sundays
a good religious little muffet
dressed like a rich bouquet
absorbed the mindless sermons
from her polished wooden tuffet
the prayers she said
were well intended
and a little bit too repetitive
they were so sound
and elocuted
pew spider frightened was offended
and hatched this plan
with a hatchet
to make her devoutness
a little bit less competitive
