Misc. : Fairy tale "mirror" [Poem]

One day in the village came the "tarantula-woman"
and everybody rushed to see her
Someone threw some bread to her
and others threw stones at her
to save themselves from her ugliness...

And a child gave her a red flower, a single child

And she said "Don't ever tell them
how ugly they seem
those who despise you
but stand there staring"

And she said "Don't ever look
the others in the eyes
because you become a mirror
and they all break you to pieces"

One day in the village came
a wounded angel
they brought him in a cage
and the wild crowd bought tickets
to see his beauty

And a child, a pretty little angel like a tear
A child asked him to sing a song

And he said "If you want to save yourself
from your own beauty
take an axe and a sword
and cut off your wings"

And he said "Don't ever look
the others in the eyes
because you become a mirror
and they all break you to pieces"
