After Sexton:
Fairest Cinderella
And that charming prince
(A regular set of Bobbsey twins)
Lived out their lives they've claimed
...Happily ever after.
Like two antiques in a lacquered museum displaycase
Never to be bothered again by menial dust
Nor the fragmentary of modern indifference.
Their darling smirks pasted on for eternal bliss,
Metamorphosed by fairytale smooch...
Some may concur as a newfangled luxury.
Never arguing over the same outlandish story twice
Is how not to portray this far-fetched romance.
The retelling of such fables
Keeps a young maiden's mind active
And gives poets~ other vulgar reasons for ribaldry.
