Close Shave

While his older brothers
Emptied the dishwasher,
Caleb crawled over and
Helped himself to a dull
Steak knife.

Horrified, Joe grabbed it
And announced,
“I just saved him
From cutting off his own
Head.”

I’m fairly certain that
Despite all history of
Hara kiri, beheading of oneself
Has never been accomplished.

Nevertheless, thank you,
Son, for your vigilance.
