Thank you all for the wonderful input.

After Black Forest Cake, an Abortion, and a Cup Of Coffee

It was Hansel and Gretel's step second only mother
who couldn't see through trees. She sent the squirmy
and rotten (yet alive) on an errand.
Cupping her breasts, pouting
oh, oh, what about me. Me!

A boy, oh-so clever, pissed breadcrumbs
from there to here. His sister, a greedy
twit, ate the crumbs and grumbled, gone

before my belly swelled. Oh!
whatever,
whatever,
whatever.

Colorful sprinkles on candied lips
decorated the sugar-bread witch.
Plump hips, long nails dipped
in honey. She motioned- come
come.

She, at least, invited them to enter,
a type of pre-heat, if you will, a rehearsal,
songs about something like

run, run, as fast as you can, or,
ding dong the witch. Ah, hell,
the story comes, the story goes.

While playing bridge on a future day,
the mother, a witch and the second bitch
nibble ginger cookies and sigh sigh sigh.

If only we could see through trees. Oh!

Karen, a fine revision. I kind of miss repeating whatever, but understand why it is gone. Here

run, run, as fast as you can, or,
ding dong the witch. Ah, hell,
the story comes, the story goes.

perhaps a change in breaks to echo the nursery rhyme effect

run, run, as fast as you can,
ding dong the witch. A
h, hell, the story comes,
the story goes.

Smiles.

Gary

Bingo, Bango, Bongo!

(it's an old golf game, Karen... and golf is the best analogy of life... you are in the woods and your ball is buried in mud, everyone else is waiting for you to swing, do you pull the ball outta the muck, or take your swing as it lies-- according to the rules-- it defines YOU!)

the eloquent truth of fairey tales seems lost, me darlin...

let's bring them back!

Yes, Karen... that was admiration, darlin... hey, I'm used to navigating around obstacles... the ship's heading isn't your true direction, you have to compensate for set & drift (wind and current)... so don't mind me, if i'm commenting, I like it...
