Fairies knit tales, but they don’t have tails, I don’t think.
Dog’s do.
Long,
with an abrupt end – that’s usually moving,
while never escaping its tether.
Is that the idea? – that no matter how far the tail goes,
it will never get out of hand.
Unless it’s docked of course – that is the saddest tail,
a stump of a tail that still tries its best,
but is destined for a short and disappointing end.
If I were a dog without a tail, I think I’d think it was the end of the world.
If I were a fairy without a tale – I would be sadder still.
The End.
