The Tooth Faerie, Unhinged

Oh, how you brushed and washed me, 
And lovingly dental flossed me -  
How tragically you lost me, 
When I was extracted from your skull 
By an overzealous faerie, 
Toothless, hideous and scary, 
Who from kids like you, unwary, 
Snatches denture teeth, which he can cull.

Lol. Parents have been cornered into this narrative for generations. A movie, maybe? Can't be more fantasy than Barbie.
