How the Witch Stole the Stack

Every kid up in Teenland liked Yellow Cups a lot…
But the Witch, who lived just North of Teenland, did NOT!
The Witch hated Yellow Cups! The whole yellow cup stack,
Whether at breakfast or lunch, at dinner or snack.
It could be her head wasn't screwed on quite right.
It could be her crown was a wee bit too tight.
But I think the most likely reason of all
May have been that her wand was not magical at all.
Whatever the reason, her wand or her crown
She stood there on check-in day frowning a frown.
Then she sneered, with her Witch knuckles nervously cracking
"I MUST find some way to stop those cups from stacking!"
For tomorrow, she knew, all the Teen girls and boys,
Would start stacking their cups! As if they were toys!
That's one thing she hated! The CUPS!
CUPS! CUPS! CUPS!
Stacks and stacks of bright yellow CUPS!
And the more the Witch thought of these Yellow Cups stacking
The more the Witch thought "I must stop this whole thing!"
So she snuck into the kitchen when no one was looking
(Being all too busy with the chopping and cooking)
And under her fur cape, glistening white
She hid those yellow cups right out of sight.
She took them down from the shelf, one by one
Til they were all gone, every single yellow stackable one.

Did the White Witch succeed?
Are there no yellow cups left in Teenland and Narnia?
To find out go The Spare Oom, our on-line journal.
