NaPoWriMo Day 29 - Poem, The End Cometh
tick tock tick tock ...
The clock was ticking down
Cindy Cinderella
Boys were calling her that
Last minute ever near
Time to eat time to sleep
Time to love time to fight
What would it be this time
Drats, down a one way street
Her car ran out of gas
Rats all over the road
Very dark no street lights
Midnight came missed her date
Glass slippers and carriage
Rats to horses fine gown
Prince of Sweden rescued
Thanks fairy godfather
Old life to end, on time
