unhappy ending

the pretty lass tumbled into a pit
groaned and murmured ‘this is it’
this here seems like a deep dark cave
hence I must be bright, I must be brave
and so in the gloom she started to grin
as she remembered the tale of Alladin
she found a lamp, rubbed, hummed a song
and soon something started to grow long
next her ears heard a coo of delight
as her hand got slathered in creamy white
and as she pondered this twist in the tale
she heard the polite baritone of a male
said the voice, why thank you, ma’am
this here is just my trusty old ham
maybe your torch went out before the sign
but you fell into a shallow coal mine
and if all you wanted was to get out
it’d have taken a cough, not even a shout.
