I.
Cinderella, missed by social services,
victim of domestic slavery,
works all day scrubbing surfaces
in dresses cut from drapery
gets rescued by a fairy
who magics up shoes and a frock
says go to the ball but be wary
of staying past twelve o’clock
lots of dancing ensues
it’s midnight before she knows it
loses one of her shoes
when she jumps in the pumpkin to close it
the prince orders a search
of his poorly neglected kingdom
using as part of his merch
the shoe that Cinders had flinged ‘im
her ugly sisters struggle
in desperation to prove
the prince bites his knuckle
but the shoe doesn’t fit their hooves
Cinderella coyly tries it
while her sisters wail and whimper
it’s just her size so she buys it
and suddenly life gets simpler

II.
Jack spills the beans
uploads himself to the cloud
throws himself on the castle scene
an ogre gets ploughed
