Beauty Kills the Beast
A Beauty will kill the Beast
The briars of Lucifer to weep
While Cinderella has a feast
Snow White coughs poison so deep
To kiss a Knight yet to keep
Her loves longing yet to greet
Rapunzel's hair falls to the street
For the Prince of Peace not a creep
God grants his Son yet to meet
Her as his Queen Esther so sweet
Immortal life to come as our treat!
