Snow White (Part 4)

Rating: 5.0


While the royal dogs were howling into the broken night to throw away
The forces she was preparing the poison for Snow White's birthday.
The poison was melted into the blood and dew by a queen with innocent eyes.
Her beggars jumped over the moon for a ritual dance for the princess who died.




Her crows were flying in the wind being so proud of what they had done,
Her dress could hide the truth so well. Beyond her mask, she enjoyed the fun.
''I'm having bodice laces for sale, '' she said while knocking on the dwarfs' door.
Then, she pulled the laces so tight that Snow White fell on the floor.


The sun hid behind the sea of clouds not to see the Snow White's death,
The dwarfs came home and found her on the floor without having breath.
They cut the bodice laces in two, and Snow White could come back to life,
''She will give you poison to drink in sips, and you will die without any strife.''



‘'Mirror, on the wall, who in this land is fairest of all? '' Queen wanted to know.
‘'You, my queen, are fair; it is true, '' replied the same mirror through its glow.
''But beyond the seven mountains, in the dwarfs' house, Little Snow-White
Is a thousand times fairer than you. Moreover, her future is very bright! '



She poisoned a comb and went out to knock again on the Snow White's door,
When she stuck the comb into the girl's hair, the girl fell on the floor.
When the seven dwarfs returned home, they drowned in their despair,
But she opened her eyes when Liar pulled the poisoned comb from her hair.



‘'Mirror, on the wall, who in this land is fairest of all? '' Queen wanted to know.
‘'You, my queen, are fair; it is true, '' replied the same mirror through its glow.
''But beyond the seven mountains, in the dwarfs' house, Little Snow-White
Is a thousand times fairer than you. Moreover, her future is very bright! '



Everything was gray around, and the Queen said her mystic words aloud,
Inside her dark castle's granite walls, even the signs of time were not allowed.
Only lonesome birds and souls were flying there above a big fragile shroud,
Only craggy faces and weary eyes could be seen in a demonic crowd.
