Mirror mirror on the wall
I was born the gentlest of them all
I came to being to be the gentlest of all creation
its my only raison d'etre!
I came to being
I struggled to consciousness
to be the servant
the mother the father, the lover of life and of Nature
t'is my raison d'etre
I came to being as the answer to all this yearning for love
I came to be the gentle mother carer of life and of Nature and of all
creatures big and small, strong and weak, good and bad..
and then I was brutalised beyond recognition
Mirror mirror on the wall
I do not know myself anymore
Mirror mirror on the wall help me
I cannot find the path to myself
I see a distorted monster
an extreme dedicated insatiable monster
a blood thirsty power hungry monster
love hater life hater self righteous monster
anti-life anti-Earth anti-love
that is surely someone else
it can't be me or mine
Mirror mirror on the wall
was I not born the gentlest of them all?
could you tell the World why and how?
The Monster?
............................................
Once upon a time a miracle babe was violated 1000 times
and when the violation became habitual chronic normal
everyone forgot
the history was buried
violation violation violation violence violence violence blood blood blood
it all became normal
and when all abnormal became normal everyone forgot the story
everyone rationalised the little history that was not buried deep
enough
and there were no more miracle babes
and when there was a freak miracle babe
the baby cried:
FATHERRRR MOTHERRRRR ALL THIS VIOLENCE ALL THIS TERROR ALL THIS BLOOD?
mirror mirror on the wall
I was born to be the gentlest of them all
but defensIess I was violated a thousand times
and when I was violated utterly I forgot
I became a monster and forgot why or how
