Once Upon A Time
May 11, 2009
Once upon a time-
so cliche,
so used,
so unrealistic.
It's fiction,
fantasies,
false.
It begins wild stories about two in love,
fighting off villains and creatures,
persevering through it all.
It makes children dream of a magical world,
where everything and everyone is happy and nice.
Trees sing songs and birds do housework.
In The End everything is perfect.
Once upon a time-
so cliche,
so used,
so unrealistic.
