Once there was a perfect princess
Bedazzled in beauty and success.
‘Fee-fi-fo-fum
I'll take the soul of the gifted one'
'So young, so sweet, so smart, so fair
I'll hunt you down, devil may care
Fee-fi-fo-fum
Run if you can, hide if you dare'
Said the giant with each foot-step thud:
‘I'll chase you down like an ogre should
Fee-fi-fo-fum
I'll catch you however you run -
‘There's no escape from reality
Whatever your skills in alchemy -
Fee-fi-fo-fum
Run and run, you'll never be free'.
‘Fame and fortune are nothing to me
You'll never have peace if you can't just be
Fee-fi-fo-fum
I'll get you yet, just wait and see'
‘I'll grind your bones to make my bread
As I mess with you inside your head:
Fee-fi-fo-fum
There'll come a time you are better dead'
‘There are no lines that will bring relief
Grief drowned out is more fearsome grief
Fee-fi-fo-fum
I take the souls of the woebegone'.

I too have written about Whitney-2 poems. I really liked her songs, so I disregarded her addiction to drugs, which ruined her life. I hate drugs, never touched them. They are indeed giants. A brilliant poem.
