"81 Whacks" (Lizzie Borden Portrait)

In the mood for Halloween and eery things, I drew up this lovely rendition of the late murderess, Lizzie Borden, cradling her prized murder weapon, a 19th century axe.

Lizzie Borden took an axe

And gave her mother forty whacks.

When she saw what she had done

She gave her father forty-one.
