The Reptile Room
For Beatrice-
My love for you shall live forever.
You, however, did not.

The Wide Window
For Beatrice-
I would much prefer it if you were alive and well.

The Miserable Mill
To Beatrice-
My love flew like a butterfly
Until death swooped down like a bat
As the poet Emma Montana McElroy said;
"That's the end of that."

The Austere Academy
For Beatrice-
You will always be in my heart,
In my mind,
And in your grave.

The Ersatz Elevator
For Beatrice-
When we met my life began,
Soon afterward, yours ended.

The Vile Village
For Beatrice-
When we were together I felt breathless.
Now you are.

The Hostile Hospital
For Beatrice-
Summer without you is as cold as winter.
Winter without you is even colder.

The Carnivorous Carnival
For Beatrice-
Our love broke my heart,
and stopped yours.

The Slippery Slope
For Beatrice-
When we first met, I was lonely, and you were pretty.
Now I am pretty lonely.

The Grim Grotto
For Beatrice-
Dead women tell no tales,
Sad men write them down.

The Penultimate Peril
For Beatrice-
No one could extinguish my love,
or your house.

The End
For Beatrice-
I cherished, you perished,
The world's been nightmarished.

The End - Chapter Fourteen
For Beatrice-
We are like boats passing in the night,
particularly you.
