I wrote it though blood, sweat, and tears,

"Are you a lieutenant too?"
"No," I said, "I'm not, sadly, not yet,

"Stop!" said the father,
"That has no place here!"
But the daughter said it wasn't a problem for her
because I was, after all, a poet.
She just wanted to know one thing,
"Whether it was over and done with?"
