Never After Series: My Fair Cat Ladies (#5)

More than most,

of times to roast,

the “Almost Was” is present.

The heroes not–

–but zeros what,

looked like prince but peasant,

the quailing spawn

not duck, nor swan,

distinction never lament,

since heroes must

at all times bust

their stones to mimic content.

Not Gold-like Locks

–although a fox

her Blonde was from the bottle,

a Clorox rinse,

to bleach and tint,

her mousy do full throttle,

so occupied

was she by dye

she missed the tryst with 3 Bears,

not porridge hot,

nor just right cot,

suited her like hair-care.

And so it was

the fabled buzz

’round real Goldie’s rap sheet,

was crafted on–

–that Lohan blonde

‘Like Locks went on to Goat Peep’s…

A fellow chump,

Goat failed to bump,

her sister Bo from rhyme scheme,

now paying gig,

along with wigs,

is online selling goat cheese.

A sorry plight

but serves her right,

for egging on Rapunzee,

last month’s trim,

at shop was Grimm,

as Brothers stories summ’ries,

her close-cropped mop

insured she’d not,

find her way to Kindle,

since Make-Believe

is short on weaves,

excepting certain spindles.

What happened next

is straight from text–

but “seams” so not as golden

–as tales that stage,

their starting page,

set in days of olden…

These unwrit gals,

have made new pals,

with cats escaping foxes…

No book deals, either,

since pets feet feature

Pusses wearing Crocs’es.
