One of my original 2021 comments (slightly edited):
/// “If the shoe fits,” thought Cindy’s step-sister,
“I’ll be Mrs. to Prince Charming’s Mister.”
And yet try as she might,
the shoe still was too tight,
(his sole fitting excuse to resist her).
/// Sister two tried the contest to steal.
With a knife she lopped off her right heel.
But the blood and the gore
pouring onto the floor
caught them wise and torpedoed the deal.
/// Cinderella slipped in past the guards,
donned the shoe; gave the Prince her regards.
His heart, Cindy had stolen,
but her foot became swollen
and the glass slipper burst into shards.
