Doctor Frankenstein's Daughter

My father, Doctor Frankenstein
creator of my crazed design
look on me now and love your child
my monster heart unreconciled
to being how you had me born —
a thing to shun — to fear and scorn
O take my feeble, stunted arm
I am your pet and mean no harm
but Man is foolish to explore
what only God could do before
Have mercy, Doctor — be that kind
to free my flesh and cleanse my mind
abominations such as I
should never live — I crave to die
I hurt, I suffer — worse than you
I’m less than human, frightened to
explore a world which can’t be mine
please end me — then forget your crime!
