I Set a Place For a King and a Monster Came Home Instead

His food was ready to be served without hesitating His bath was drawn and his slippers laid out I went out of my way preparing for him all day "BUT" when arrived to my "SUPRISE" He came home as a Monster instead The gentleness I once knew was left on his job He walked in the door threw things on the floor "SLAMMED THE DOOR" Looked at me strange as if he didn't know my name ATE and went fast to SLEEP! I was upset but I didn't complain "BECAUSE" I had done all I could I had set a place for a KING and a Monster came home instead!
