(a modern fairy tale)
ah, yes.
it's a good thing that
i am not in charge of writing
fairy tales for the children.
the best hell i can imagine
is forcing the prince
to see through my eyes.
feel my struggle
burn in the betrayal
dwell in the hatred
for the prince to understand
what he has done
would be fair.
and in this tale,
no frog turns into a prince
with a kiss.
in this tale,
the prince turns into a swine
with alarming skill.
