Fairytales Poems

Happily never after

Mirror, mirror on the wall,
how do you choose
the fairest of them all?
why do you get to pick apart every single person
that never gave you the right?

Snow White ate less and less apples
until she became so thin a gust of wind could’ve blown her away
and she needed a strange man to save her
What if he tried

Dirt Driveways

Dirt Driveways

Who knew that dirt driveways lead to happy homes?
That Prince Charming’s white horse is really a black BMW.
That our kingdom would consist of his, mine, and ours.

Who knew that fairytale castles came in split-level houses with cathedral ceilings? That the beauty in the house comes from the twists and turns in the architecture. That

thinking about Fractured Fairytales

trapped in skeletal arms of the wolverine forest,
I crave rose-scents from the corpse crescent,
   seeing through the portal of pained pupils,
written with cinder-gold between 
lethal lines of nostalgic nightfall,
about sunsets woven in angst,
from stone-cold tears
s u p p r e s s e d
within crawling clouds before onyx rain…

and must I scribble sonnets

Fairytales and Razorblades

Fairytales and Razorblades
Sitting here alone in my book
Waiting for the words to give back what they took
All of them just lying across the page
So nonchalant yet full of rage
Time is broken and when the pencil snaps
This becomes the beginning of the end
And then
The story is over and it all fizzles and fades
Never to be remembered
And

Twisted Fairytales

Rumpel Still's kin are a strange lot
With names not easily forgot
But he was kept asleep
By his cousin, the creep
Moonshine Still was the guilty sot

Rumpel had walked deep in the wood
Where Moon was with bros in the hood
Distilling white lightning
The scene was frightning
They drugged Rumpel more than they should

Moon left him leaning 'gainst a tree
Rump's whereabouts,

THANKFUL FOR FAIRY TALES

Today I’m thankful for fairy tales…

Albert Einstein, a man who should know believed
If you want your children to be intelligent
read them fairy tales…

He had even more to say on this subject
here are those details…

If you want them to be more intelligent, 
He said
read them more fairy tales.

Escapism

ESCAPISM


In pyramids we finger attunements
        or activations as love dances across
                                     

Truth of Fairytales

Fairytales, oh fairytales,
A world of magic that never fails.
Where dreams come true and love prevails, 
And happy endings leave trails.

From Cinderella to Snow White,
The stories fill our hearts with delight. 
Of brave young heroes and knights in sight,
And enchanted forests with secrets so tight.

There's always a villain that we despise,
With a wicked heart and cunning

The Lie From Fairytales

The sleeping beauty surrounded by lackluster roses-
She receives rest I never shall,
Whilst I work my hand and mind to bone and broth.
The star-crossed lovers staring down from the heavens-
Blissful and gay in each others presence,
And I in my own tragedy of loneliness.
The maiden with strands of gold intertwined in scalp-
Majestically long, which attracted princes from

The Emperor of Our Fairytales

The Emperor
hath donned a gewgaw crown,
bedazzled are the throng.

He rides an electric horse.
Strides through the pitiless cities
of lost or last hopes.
His faceless glance
not even a mask,
but a cold premonition
an iron mind
behind bolt-shut eyes.

The crowds back away,
bow and know
they are now subjects,
not even slaves,

only subjects
to be used and disposed of
at the ballot box.

The Other Side of Fairytales

And from the rain I shall emerge 
   though drenched in pain and scarred by love
For nothing solely worth the wait
                          is easy,, we must rise above

And what’s

The Past Grows Dreamy

Inside our minds time often flows backward,
To rich sparkling treasures we left behind,
But the memories become somewhat blurred,
In a landscape where purple mists purblind.
There we find old gold, because time is kind
To the woman in the shoe with children,
Fading slow with Alice in Wonderland,
And Humpty Dumpty, from the wall fallen.
And old loves and those we

Fairytales

She didn’t have a fairytale life 
With happily ever afters
Or special tea parties
with looney Mad Hatters

She grew up imagining 
Prince Charming on a white horse
She was a pretend Sleeping Beauty
who’s path took a different course

Drugs, gifts and deception 
Trafficked for human pleasures
No high seas adventures
or searching for treasures

With the smell of sweat and beer
From the

Mythical Creatures and Fairytales

Autumn's sigh emotion thrown across the night.
Stars shiver in the laden cold with the moon's sight.
The court yard had the comfort and invisibility
As the elves, faeries, and minotaur physicality
As they dance in the inner labyrinth among
Countless others of their mythical young.
No mundane would give it a second look.
Yet, there is no such thing as a
