The Dark Side of Magic
There was once a beautiful witch with a heart as black as coal
She appeared on the steps of a castle and cursed thousands of souls
She blamed the prince's greediness and said his heart was dark
But all that could be blamed was her and her black heart
This same witch gave a peasant girl a dress as pure as gold
But only to laugh and take it away again before the night grew old
The peasant girl was Cinder who ran away in shame
Only to appear again cursed, and with the witch to blame
Aurora fared no better and was punished too
By the witch who grew so mad and said no rescue
She built a wall of thorns and made the people sleep
All were saved however by the dragon who stormed the palace keep
Mad at her previous failures she decided to steal a girl
And lock her in a tower that had steps but not a door
Passing by the tower a prince turned and stared
But then continued, on laughing without a care
Tiana, Ariel and Mulan also got caught in the crossfire
But frogs and princes and a sword made her plan backfire
Angry now the witch drew back and turned into an old lady
Who had dark eyes, a hunched back and who looked quiet shady
A rock from a cliff almost crushed the witch
And a pumpkin carriage almost pushed her into a ditch
A wolf with quite big eyes tried to make her a snack
She barely got away before…smack
She fell to the ground in a crumpled heap
And thus preceded to weep
She then caught a cold
And died, crumbling like mold
