~Few Fairy Tales Ago...

~Few Fairy Tales Ago...

A Poem by Frieda P

I should caution you dear sir
my spaces are sealed vault tight
too much heartache all for naught
lay me down on a bed of roses ~
don't expect me to die for you

rush my senses with intensity
my body will respond in kind
don't expect the same in return, 
from my emotions nor my mind~
both expired a few fairy tales ago

Yes, the acres of debris left by insidious fairy tales fracturing our lives and futures. Poor Walt -- I don't think he meant to turn several generations of little girls into breathless Snow Whites waiting for Prince Charming -- but perhaps it was the naivete of the times we grew up in: the ubiquitous TV filling our heads with visions of Ozzie and Harriet type couples, Ward and Betty Cleaver, Dobie Gillis suffering for his beloved blond cheerleader from afar. Oh well, better to have our eyes open walking through this meadow; you can spot the fairy crap before you step in it.

Haha you're too funny lady....a fairy crap detector sounds like a good idea though.

This is an awesome piece. I always find myself attracted to those who are broken in some kind of way, not sure why, this spoke to me as if coming from a familiar voice.

Sounds like Mrs.Robinson came out to play haha...of course, she plays by her own rules ;) Definitely one of your more clever works, but the message is loud and clear. I have no interest in being Prince Charming, but I'd sure as hell like to be Prince Charisma at times...Great work love :)

Sometimes a good chat and a laugh are all that's required !

A most gentle, intimate poetic muse Frieda !

-- A lovely write here Frifri - a fairy tale of love?

I loved this one, one of my favourites tonight.

The fairy tales, as kids they enchant then they beckon in youth, then they disappoint us then they finally jade. And yet we are so hard-wired to believe that the next generation has to learn the hard way too.
Hah - profiler - brilliant Frieda !!

This is lovely! This speaks so much about what I feel nowadays. "from my emotions nor my mind both expired a few fairy tales ago" sums it all in excellent accuracy. :)

Anyway, what a wonderful song you have here. I'm quite disturbed by the images though. Haha.
