Fairytale reality

Fairytale reality

A Poem by Armistead Lindsey

To escape to the land of fairy tales and princes,
Would be marvelous at best,
Escapism at worst,
But beautiful that none the less.
For living in castles,
Comes rent free,
Spare the dragons and dungeons,
And curse bound witches.
For jobs are for peasants,
And royalty we'd be,
With bountiful Riches,
And careless minds.

Yes reality is no Castle,
And princes are but men.
Fairy tales are stories,
And Riches are sparse.
