War came to Fairy Land

When war came to Fairy Tale land

it was a sight to see

none knew what to do

or

who was against who?

Tooth Fairy was top dog

no longer doing the work

sending out minions to collect teeth

while she sat

eating bonbons

getting very fat.

As everyone knows

the kinder you are to your employees

they will do what you want

when you want 

without question.

(Well some small questions)

Grumbles began to rumble

dissatisfaction

at an all time high

revolution being planned in plain sight

at tavern tables

polishing rotted teeth

building another wing on the Tooth Castle.

There was going to be trouble

this was true

they did not know how to go

or who they should see.

He came flying in on a wonderous carpet

colors of white/pink/blue

sat upon stools in taverns

hastening along the mumbles to grumbles

to outright mutiny.

As everyone knows

once rebellion does begin

once armies begin to amass

there is no turning back.

One General to the other

there will be no suing for peace.

This peculiar war

waged between Tooth Fairy

and

Toilet Paper Fairy

(a new kid on the block)

became one for the books

as teeth arrows flew

toilet paper bombs smashed the line.

When all the dust settled

Tooth Castle knocked down

up went one made solely of

you guessed it…..

toilet paper.

Soon teeth minions were turned

toilet paper carriers they became

where the work did not include

trying to steal the teeth of small children

leaving little in return

except for maybe some bad dreams.

As toilet paper carriers

they were the delight of all kingdom comes

saving more than one bottom

from a nasty plight.

***Toilet Paper Fairy is the fairy who provides you

     tiny scraps of toilet paper when the roll has run out.
