A single decision can change whole worlds
Tradition, convention, custom, habit
Into disarray by defiance hurled
Insist that strict confines we inhabit
The day cannot commence with dim twilight
The centaur cannot have an equine head
A hero’s agony must not delight
What fair princess takes the monster to bed?
A story that we cannot comprehend
Might briefly dazzle or divert the mind
But if we cannot tell middle from end
We will quickly leave the odd mess behind
Even strange fantasies obey the rules
Inverse mermaids get expelled from their schools
