Bluebeard

when he first left, I thought:
 “that’s strange”
he’s a decent person, after all
until the other hidden things came out
and piled up in a grinning heap of skulls
            adultery
            abuse
            abondonment
I won’t be surprised now if he turns out to be
  last year’s ax murderer

No more facades. Even cement can have air-pockets
I won’t feel sure until I’ve prodded every inch
and even then…
            how many blood-stained corpses could be hidden in one cellar?
