Goldie Locked Up
That Goldilocks, a miss or a misfit,
How did she spin a classic charming theme?
Breaks and enters, she gets away with it -
Runaway teen in home invasion scheme!
Her arrogance exceeds all social norms,
Her conscience strikes unprecedented deal:
Not only unaware bears’ home she storms,
She barges in and settles for a meal!
But not until she vandalizes by,
Breaks a few chairs, bends spoons, too cool to care.
Guess what catches her burglar’s savvy eye?!
Sweet sentimental stuff of baby bear!
And then she acts as if she owns the place -
She’s heading for a snooze, all fed and chill.
Guess what she chooses as her resting base?! Innocent baby’s beddy, better still!
Now you tell me how classic is the tale,
Why is this blonde protagonist indeed?
She should be held in custody, no bail,
Goldie’s Breaking Bad story banned to read.
Red Riding Hood, another drifting child,
Chatting up wolves - likelihood to turn wild.
