There was this merchant's Son 
not the Merchant them-self 
That was trying to Figure out 
how to Make his mark on the world 

he Failed, and then died... 

Though before he died he sired a Daughter 
so the merchant's son's daughter Set out 
To make her Place in the world 
her Plan was all ready to go 

she Failed, and was murdered...

Truthfully it was her Cat  
which set in Motion a plan which 
Tweaked a set of Circumstances 
in that it Gain wealth off these demises 

it didn't Fail, and the demon left it's body... 

So this demon was really the Merchant 
who's action got the Son of the merchant 
Got the Daughter of the son of the merchant 
who was a disguised Cat of the daughter of  

You get the idea...

Demises though Demise 
Like grasping a nasty chain Letter 
Reading silently instead of speaking this Ritual 
Spells your doom most Swiftly 

… you're dead now and I'm a bit richer.
