Into The Woods
Skipping briskly through
the forest
Not a clue of her
surroundings and
Seeing everything in
white
Oh, everything’s so
bright!
She says, but little did
she know….
Walk straight and
strictly follow your destination,
Momma said. Without
questions, she obeyed
But momma never mentioned
anything about trust
She was young
Full of life and
radiance
Not seeing the evil in
the world
The wolf in its natural
habitat
While Red is a foreigner
entering the shadows
She illuminated the
darkness
Which captured all the
wolf’s attention
He knew she didn’t
belong
So the big bad wolf
prepared itself to strike
It was manipulative and
selfish
Only nurturing for
itself
It has a tainted heart
With bricks securely
surrounding it
That’s why the wolf
targeted the trusting
She was naïve but
carried a pure soul
The wolf steadily gained
her trust
After the wolf imputed
instructions to her
And after obeying the
wolf’s commands
The wolf knew it got its
prey right on the palm of its hands
The wolf blew her
innocence down
It sucked out all the
liveliness in her body
And left her in the
abyss
The wolf thought it
succeeded
But everyone knows the
wicked will never get its happy endings
The wolf was ignorant of
her competence
She successfully escaped
the wolf but was never the same
Her brain was first
unsorted
The wolf stained her spirit,
But she soon adapted to be
lionhearted
Nice allusion. I can clearly tell that you're talking about Little Red Riding Hood, so thats good! The only thing I suggest is that you continue to write in the same point of view throughout the whole poem. At times it gets confusing but I could tell what you were trying to say. Also, there are some grammatical corrections that would make your poem so much better! Good Job! (:
