Poem Title:
Poem
They told me from the time I was two “One day prince charming is coming for you!” They made me read these inspiring fairy tales About mermaids, evil step mothers and servants whose childhoods were unfair, They told me that even if I was troubled and had to put up with a lot, That someday my adversaries would have to surrender to me and scrub my pots, They told me I wasn’t alone; animals would be my friend So I tried that, then one night they bit me, I suffered another tragic end They said to always be kind-hearted that’s what all man want, When I got into high school I found out no one wanted to talk to the fat girl in the corner who ate chocolate glazed croissants They told me to find seven dwarfs, a crew of little people My school only had four of them Their names were; scuba, geek freak, muffin top and meatball In eleventh grade they said, "ask God for a fairy godmother to get a dress for the prom" I went to a Catholic Church, got one for 75 cents, with red stripes and one missing arm They said after graduation the wise thing to do would be to go to college and Not rush into getting married So I got knocked up my senior year by the school janitor, His name is "Prince Larry!" I dropped out a month before school ended and you’ll never guess where I reside I am currently employed doing Disney parties, where I get to dress up as all the great characters who told me those fabulous lies. Got to Love fairy tales… By: Sabina Nicole 1-24-13
