A Modern Take on the Famous Fairy Tale ("Because Chris Got Lost")

 

Taken from the warmth of the sun

to the warmth of another sun ...

"Clearly, a case of swapping black dog for monkey."

 

The first sun rose and set in a dark jungleland riddled with savage ...

"Me."

​

The second, rosier sun rose and set

in a paradise ...

"peppered with palm trees 

and sugar canes swaying in intemperate winds."

 

In this bliss ...

"I became chief

beast of burden

for the

chief

global

capitalist

beast --

you."
