Such awful bad luck!
Disaster has struck
and ruined my plan.
I could hit someone.
I'd walked by the chapel
and picked a red apple,
the poison I made
without any aid.
I left it on the table
until I was able
to give it to that bitty
who thinks she's so pretty.
Being busy with my plot
I may have forgot
that now is prime
apple-picking time.
Bench, basket or chair,
there are apples everywhere.
On the table there are nine -
but which one is mine?
