crawl in my lap
and i'll tell you all about how
little boy blue came and blew his horn,
and told me i could jump over the moon,
before running away with the dish and the spoon.
i hear he climbed a hill with jill
that he was nimble and he was quick
yet rapunzel keeps putting wax in her ears
while he's burning her toes.

simple simon sold me a pie
but it had only one plum inside.
that curled my hair.
that cracked my mirror.

i'd like to think that maybe
prince charming kept on kissing sleeping beauty
even after he realized it was just her corpse
floating gently down the stream.

i live my life in dreams. merrily, merrily
