The kingdom’s in danger!
A fire-spitting beast
has built its den
within the castle walls!
We need a noble hero,
strong and wise,
to come and save us all!
Look, on the horizon…
could it be?
Yes!
It’s the Dish Knight!
Back from another glorious fight,
he comes upon our town once more!
Please, save us from this wretched beast!
As he dons his rubber gloves,
he notes the situation…
Scraps of food everywhere,
utter devastation!
Silverware scattered,
porcelain plates lay
near pots and pans battered!
“Ah yes… I’ve seen this before,”
he confidently proclaims,
“but fear not, for you shall be saved.”
Armed with his trusty scrubber,
he scours every surface,
no spot left untouched,
’til the counters were shiny once more.
“Now, about this beast…
You needn’t fear, nay, not in the least,
for it’s quite harmless,
and desires naught but peace.
Should you treat it well,
it will in turn defend you,
and keep your workplace safe.”
“Oh, how can we repay you?”
the groundskeepers implored…
“I work not for fame or glory…
but if you must,
I’d accept a fair day’s wage.”
With that, he called upon his steed
and went along his way.
