I really like poem because its not like any other I have read. It is more real world then the normal happily ever after.
Some of the more disturbing differences were when the step sisters cut off their toe and heel to fit into the golden slipper. At the end of the story, the prince and Cinderella get married and live happily ever after. The attitude of the speaker was annoyed, she said they lived happily ever after "like two dolls in a museum case never bothered by diapers or dust". The typical happily ever after ending like in every story.
words to look up:
gussying-to enhance the attractiveness of in a gimmicky, showy manner
lentils- A leguminous plant (Lens culinaris) native to southwest Asia, having flat pods containing lens-shaped, edible seeds
