Once Upon a Time: Aladdin
Once upon a time in the lands of sand
There was a gent’ named Aladdin
Whose life wasn’t a fairyland
He had to steal everything just to get by
Pressure on her body dark and blue
Fins flap, scaly tail
All she wanted to do was breathe air
From the surface
Where the sun shone bright.
The Good Evil Queen
The beautiful queen cried
As her younger sister died
Wondering what she might become
Darkness drew back his bowstring,
With his swift fingers and violin,
He played until the Sunlight
Made her presence known to him,
Even then he played.
Once upon a timethere was a mermaid that lived deep in the oceanyears passed under the blue waters,her life always in motionin directions she did not desire.Fifteen long years passed in the company of sisters
Deriving from a single articulation
Are the eyes that close slightly
In the supposition that there is a cation
Sprouts the intuition of the anion
The appellation is such that the sky hazes over
Mother has always told me the only reason I would ever be loved is for my youthful looks
Father left her – left us because she no longer had her looks
Once upon a time I tried to kill my daughter, I know,
I’ve read every story I’ve seen how it goes
“The evil queen with an envy filled heart
Would try to kill Snow White without even a start.”
Once upon a time there was a girl who lived in a tower with a witch.
No, the witch was not evil- she was just forgetful
She adopted a little girl named Repunzel not out of spite,
Once upon a time, in a city of cement.
From the dark of night, a green hooded man was present
preparing himself for a daring event.
At the mansion of a rich man, he was at.
If there’s anything you should know
About mermaids
It's that they are real
But they don’t swim in water.
They cannot be found in the oceans of this planet.
They cannot be found on any planet.
Once Upon A Time..
A phrase heard before every bedtime
Cinderella lost her shoe
Just before her curfew
But I’ve got to admit
Once upon a timeTomorrow was not an optionThe moon, the stars, the sun woulda all be goneSight would be lostOne day
Humpty Dumpty was not an egg.
You may believe he was an egg
As long as you must
But trust me when I say-
Humpty Dumpty's name was
Henry Evans,
And he was as human as you and I.
A prince ran away,
Away from the rules,
Away from the confinement,
Away from the control of others.
He ran away to seek individuality
Once upon a time, there was a selfish prince.
His obsession with his beauty could make anyone wince.
An unseemly woman came on one cold winter's night
asking for a place to stay, giving everyone a fright.
There once was a girl,
who’s hair twirled in a gentle curl.
This girl’s was named Red,
because of the blood she had shed,
such a sad story to behold.
Once upon a time this era's Belle sits, sipping Starbucks' newest frappuccino flavor-
Whatever that is.
Her late night study sessions bring even earlier mornings.
Once upon a time there was a dream.
For litte girls to have the future they desired.
For them to not grow up in a society that tells them "You can't do that when you grow up" or "You run like a girl".
On a warm sunny day
In the middle of May
Allie Lovell was sitting.
She wasn’t a normal girl – she hated knitting
And being polite made her want to start hitting.
So on that warm sunny day
Swallow the pill, down the whole bottle, savor the cake, and watch the smoke billow,
As a cheshire smile forms on your face, you feel at ease, like you're finally in place.
I'm so understated
Glass slipper?
I mean, so overrated
Cinderella this, Cinderella that
but you never hear about Drizella
What's up with that?
I watched and I waited
Once upon a time, in Arendelle
There was princess Anna and in love she fell
Her sister, Queen Elsa, so strong and so bold
Could manipulate weather, and make everything cold
Once upon every day I open my eyes and I jump out of bed I throw open my curtains open my windows and draw in a breath The morning is just blooming over the buildings up above
Once upon a Villain,
The villain was chillin'
The Villain was a teen
A boy with intelect supreme
He wandered round the forest.
the place where he was freest.
He came across a old looking witch.
Down the rabbit hole you say?
No, no, no darling you are mistaken.
Down a corridor and through a doorway,
That is where you were taken.
Once upon a time
When the world was fresh and new
When man could touch the sky
To tip their hand in the blue
Without burning from the sun
Where a castle shined from all lands
We find it lying on the beach:
A lump of scales and fingernails,
An inky trail up from the water
Slithering through the sand
Its eyes open and filmy
As if surprised by the sudden darkness,
Once upon a time,
A little mermaid lived
in a deep blue sea.
But soon things came adrift...
Suddenly the sea wasn't so blue,
It had taken on an ugly hue.
The little mermaid was sick.
I know I haven't written
In a while, but I'm getting in that mood again
And can't stop thinking about what happened
So I'll do this to get it out my mind.
And I hope I just stop crying.
It was a cloak,
Not a hood,
And my sweets were
More than “good.”
And traversing the forest
All on my own?
On long car ridesShe chooses the music playedCarefully setting the moodUsing songs to portray emotionShe turns melodies i
they had always assumed the truth had been
that the dragon loomed by the princess to doom the young men who attempted
to save her;
to keep her entombed; the dragon behooved to trap her within the walls.
Once upon a time,
There was a princess who lived high in a tower.
Her hair blonde and long--a cut or trim, she never did have.
The prince was determined to save her, with his manly power.
One dirt road to the great, bright cityIn the center laid a frog ill and chillyMany passed by and it was forgottenUntil it died and would soon rotten
Once upon a time
Lived a little mermaid, called Ariel, who commited a crime
After becoming infatuated with a land-bound man
She seeked out an exiled sorceress, and of her evil magic, she became a fan
A red hooded figure appeared
Midnight shadows scattered
In the abby off tress a reflection glared
The hairy, smelly, dreaded worlf showed
Red eyes glared back, wold and hood
The mirror showed the truth
A red hooded figure appeared
Midnight shadows scattered
In the abby off tress a reflection glared
The hairy, smelly, dreaded worlf showed
Red eyes glared back, wold and hood
The mirror showed the truth
Like blood matting fur, the hunger
stems down the spine, sweetest torment.
And echoes in fear, a flash, blind
Contrast – the forest awash with red,
swirling, the scent in the breeze, buzz
Once upone a time,
there was a sister
that often went unnoticed
unless comments were noted
"covered with disappointment"
or rather just not the focus
she tried a step forward
I know if you are reading this right now, you’re just dying to know what truly happened that day.I am also willing to bet that you just ate up what all the fairy tales fed you.If I am correct, I advise that you go to the nearest toilet and start
Once upon a time, there was a girl.
The girl, born from fervent wishes,
knew not of any life different
than her own. Left with only riches
and good health, she still wanted more.
I want, I desire, I need
Chorus
My own little world
where diamonds grow out of pearls
where hearts light on fire
eyes burning with desire
everytime I fall asleep
I hear a sweet melody
Once upon a time...
There was a girl with hair of a deep crimson and eyes a deep sea blue
Her body was slim and usual
Until her tail of some strange sea-creature began at her waist
In this particular fairytale,
There is no poisoned apple or bread trail.
Instead, there is a girl and a glass slipper.
No Grimm details, no sign of Jack the Ripper.
Our story begins with Cinderella,
“Once Upon a Time...”
I could give you many dimes for how often I’ve heard this line.
The words once heard are petty deceptions for bedtime.
Once upon a time
There were seven kingdoms
Founded by seven sisters
And blessed by an immortal witch
The stories of these kingdoms
You may find familiar
But know that all is not as it was told
Once upon a time...
Lived a poor young woman who wanted to go to college,
A college of her dreams to aquire more knowledge.
But this college was elite and also very expensive,
We know the story of Red Riding Hood
And that lecherous wolf she met in the wood
But what if the wolf hadn't wanted a snack?
Would Red have been able to find her way back?
FIRST STORY: The Beautiful Boy
Once upon a time, there was a woman.
A princess of beauty, a lady of nobility,
A damsel of good-nature, a virgin of purity,
Were all fair titles she owned not.
Who has heard of the story
of half the female in her fishy glory?
Who won back a trident,
while remaining silent.
Their story is long,
filled with plenty o song.
Once upon a time, in a town far away,
You know how the story goes;
There lived a young girl with ebony black hair,
Snow white skin, and lips red as the rose;
Tink.He calls me.Tink.He calls me.Love.He never calls me.Wendy.He calls her.
That is why I wear Green.
Once upon a time,
Maiden, you have felt Spring’s breath upon cheek
Swept off to castle by Nature’s full bloom
Behind veil you remain impenetrable to critique
Crossing the threshold with fairest of grooms.
It was a cloak,
Not a hood,
And my sweets were
More than “good.”
And traversing the forest
All on my own?
Once Upon A Time
There was a piper.
Not just any piper,
But a piper with a magical flute.
As he played his flute,
Children would follow,
But what happened one day
She’s nothing like the rest of us
Belle of the ball,
And her father, the town outcast
She dreamed of having it all
So she had a plan,
Was she brave?
As she was cunning
By,
Zac Simons
She bottled the impossible
With silent gestures she kept audible
Once upon a time,
There was tiny little duck,
Who knew he as different from his family.
He was far from his family' normal paradigm.
The duck did not look the same, act the same, or even have the same pluck.
Dear whoever it may concern,
I truely believe I am in love with you,
the way your eyes light up when you smile,
like the sunset has decided to visit me
every single day.
You say that I'm insane,
Once upon a time, there was a princess trapped in a very tall tower.She screamed, yelled and cried for help with every bit of power.Since nobody down there could hear her yelp,She passed her time playing with herself.
