There one was a boy

Who needed help

Looking for help he goes to a house

Inside was a man

"I'll give you fame" said the man

"As long as you can pay"

"But I have no money sir"

"I do not need cash" he said with a grin

"I need something that helps you work"

The boy looks sad and a little confused

"What do you mean? What do you need?"

"That of which helps you see"

"Do I have to?"

The man places a blade on the table

"You tell me"

The boy leaves the house holding a lantern

He cries while he smiles

He had gotten what he wanted
