Peep

Little Bo Peep lost her sheep
Well, that story's simply not true
And if you'll give me a minute
I'll tell the real story to you

Peep needed money, she was in a bind
To pay off some gambling debts
And I am the FairyTale Investigator
Just in case, some of you forgets

She took those sheep to a pawn shop
And she got a really good price
But instead of paying her debtors
She decided to roll the dice

She even played some blackjack
But the cards didn't fall her way
We knew that something was fishy
When another sheep went missing that day

We tailed her to 7th street pawn shop
That's where the arrest was made
She should already be in prison
But I found out the trial was delayed

They say, she's now our informant
And the fairytales are all on the run
So, stay tuned, til you see my next poem
I promise, there's more to come
