FairyPunkStories: Jack and Jill

I re-imagined Jack and Jill for FairyPunkStories, a website that specializes in fairy tales with a steampunk twist. They have a version of The 3 Billy Goats Gruff, re-imagined by author David Boop and drawn by Maurine Starkey.

Here’s Jack and Jill for your enjoyment.

Jack and Jill
by Guy Anthony De Marco

Jack and Jill,
went up the hill,
to fetch a pail of water;
Jack fell down
and broke his crown,
and Jill came tumbling after.

But Jill was smart –
to the Tinker’s cart,
she went to fetch brass gears.
Now Jack’s more stable,
and with a gyro they’re able
to fetch the water without tears.
