Fables

You see them every single day.

The fables and stories 

of forgotten ages

long lost loves

and by gone days

you see them everywhere

don't you my friend. 

walking, sleeping beauties

with hair of golden silk 

and form as perfect 

as perfect could be

that is to say 

perfection

yes i said it

perfection

don't you see the dancing queens?

so long and fair

grown from despair

singing sweet songs

on brighter stars

dancing till the midnight strike

and running away

talking all of the attention

with them

and there fragile stance

there

glass slippers.

then there are the long haired beauties

standing so far off

aloof almost 

wishing for just one person

to make the climb

and make them smile

not realising themselves

why don;t they just 

climb on down 

from their lonely tower.

then there are the many dozens of beauties 

of belle's 

standing in the wide old fields

of golden seed

and broken sow

dancing 

with the monsters

that scare your children

due to your

own pathetic ignorance

and even when they show you 

all they have done

you cannot help but proclaim

but he is a 

monster....

but tell me 

dear readers

have you ever seen 

her?

you know who 

the raven haired beauty who steals your breath

with her pale skin 

showing you a shade of black that you never knew before

or those lips

as red as your heart 

the one she is holding 

in her hand

you know who

don't you?

The Fairest of them All. 

I have seen one in my life

in all of my life's

Tis the very same one

turning the frost to fire

and the fire to frost 

that is her 

the fairest of them all 

and trust me

when I say this

when you see her 

she will take a bite

right out of your heart 

for there is only one

fairest of them all.
