Once upon a time,
Where there wasn't time at all,
Lived the Wicked Witch of Evil,
In this season we call Fall.
She thought that she had beauty,
In those eyes that we can't stand.
She thought her skin was perfect,
But it was really kind of bland.
Then one day came a child.
Well, her step daughter no less.
Who was one with all of nature,
But turned out to be a princess.
The wicked witched turned away from
The sight she hated to see.
And asked the question we all know,
Her smile was full of glee.
"Mirror mirror, on the wall,
Who's the fairest one of all."
It hesitated. That was enough.
She could not believe, the mirror's bluff.
"It's not longer you, My lady witch.
Your daughter's quite the child.
Perhaps you should now wish her well,
When your mood is slightly mild."
'That's what I'll do,' She thought bemused,
She stormed out to find her daughter.
She thought up ways to kill her hard,
The first was painful slaughter.
She finally thought of one,
It was really quite the trick.
But she knew she had to do it,
And she had to do it quick.
She found Snow White- Her daughter,
For now.
She smiled and waved Hello.
She offered her an apple.
"From my garden this apple grows."
She refused, the witch was mad.
She showed her how to eat it.
"You put it in your mouth, you see."
And then she slowly bit it.
Down she fell, right to the ground.
Now there's no more witch around.

It shows how your decisions always will come back to bite you in the butt, or kill you in her case.
this is a GREAT one!
