I wish and I wish
I wish every fairytale had a happy ending for everyone
That the Big Bad Wolf was a misunderstood neighbor instead of a hungry wolf
instead of him getting boiled to death
He became a new edition
to the piggy family
Or that moms of the characters wouldn't die when
needed
Who knows
maybe Cinderella would have been an independent business women
Running her own maid service
Or maybe we should
Tell the Grimm version
More to kids
Instead of the Disney one
Thats full of talking animals
And captures the 5 second attention span of a two year old
Just enough for the wailing beast
To convince you
To drive to the nearest target
And buy an overly priced Elsa doll
Just to stop its wailing
Or maybe,
We should change the endings instead
Snow White actually dies from the poison apple
And
Prince whatever his name
Grieves and finds love again
Or
Rapunzuel stands up to her mother instead of having a secret lover
They go to family counseling
Making the controlling mother realize her mistake
Just remember
Once upon a time...
Can lead you down your own crazy magical rabbit hole
