A fairy tale is a lie, but there's a hint in it^•^
A poem is dedicated to my fav band "Korol I Shut" (The King and the Jester), one of the most listened band in Russia that reaches top 5 by total listens every month despite ceased to exist in 2013.
As was said in news when its leader died: "Each song is a unique journey into the world of fairy tales and ballads. Evil witches and valiant knights, beautiful princesses and ruthless bandits, evil spirits, werewolves and vampires - all this could be met in the worlds created by the legendary rock band The King and the Jester.

While the story is interesting, a few sentences are very awkward.
>Blocking off my path's retreat.
>Started running in flee.
>appeared before my looks
I can understand what you meant but these sound unnatural to an English speaker.
The first two should be:
·Blocking off my path of retreat
·I started running/fleeing (you can only have one, else it's redundant)
And the last one should say "before my eyes".
As for the rest... I'll be frank, it can hardly be called a poem. Few lines rhyme well enough for it.
But the story is captivating by itself, so I hardly care. It's a good short story, with many elements of a classic tale.
By the way, there is no point in censoring the 'dumb' in "dumbasses" as 'asses' is the part that is considered offensive.
