Chipboard Poem[]

Entombed in this horror by a single red rose
Two beings share a fate that neither one chose
Each one trapped by the other wanting to be released
But who is the real beauty and who is the real beast

Beauty and The Beast (2017)[]

This edition of the dolls is like the Resurrection series in that it is a complete reinterpretation with glass eyes used for the dolls. Since the designs differ so greatly, the poem has also changed.

Chipboard Poem[]

Bathed in white a thing of beauty

But even snow has some cruelty

Shadowed in black a hulking beast

But even in darkness love must feast
