Won't Die In The House

on March 16, 2016

Willie and some other brats,
Ate up all the Rough-on-Rats
Father said, as mother cried;
Don't worry dear,
They'll die outside!

~Harry Graham, Ruthless Rhymes for Heartless Homes


A little context to this update! Rough on Rats was an arsenic-based rat poison that boasted that the rats "Won't Die in the House" which I guess if you're gonna be a rat-murderer, the stench of your deed is not something you want haunting you!
