A tale as old as time

A miraculous house as big as a castle.

Fathers telling their babies they will live happy ever after.

Save your father, meaning give him reputation and wealth!

Everyone knows what a beautiful daughter is worth.

It is not what's on the outside her father would tell.

But my God did this beast smell

The beast fit perfect as he had more hair than most

With a prutuding gut and would drool as he boast

He would always boast about his last chance

His last true love to make him a man

But to lay with this beast

Was truly sickening

She cried and begged and pleaded

But his servants all called her coincided

She must get with the times and do as she is told

Even marrying a man who's ever so old

A tale as old as time

Your virginity being yours is a lie

Just a thing her parents have sold

But she feels too young to be betrothed

Twelve is ever so young

She should be able to chose who she loves

She must where a yellow dress

And dance to impress

She must behave in every way

Or her family's reputation will pay

In a child's eyes a monster can be anything. A hanger in their closet or the creepy old neighbor across the street. Well what about an old man who looks like a beast?

A tale that was twisted and sugar coated, so young girls would not fight when they were sold. A story more about a girls survival. Beauty and the beast really holds up to it's title. Many look at it as bestiality but what about a man being with a child? Does that not technically make it a love story about a pedophile?
