The Tale of a Cuphead Queen

The royal queen is cornered.
An imminent, glorious beheading
Promises delight.
The noise of the crowd can be heard
from where she is standing.
Her head will be cut off.
Her body separated into two cups.
The smaller cup would be perfect for loose change.
The other could comfortably hold some pencils.
Her legacy reduced.
Because everyone loves things tidy.
