Fairy Tales

Some fairy tales do not come true

For evilness is hard to beat

The specious smiles of wickedness

So spurious and sickly sweet

And yet some fairy stories last

For humankind is sorely flawed

The greed of human heartlessness

A villainous and vicious fraud

Some fairy tales are here to stay

For goodness is a timeless tale

The crimes of immorality

Badness that goes beyond the pale

And still some fairy stories teach

For honor is a living thing

The human heart a place of love

Kindness its true and rightful king
