Oceans of onyx and blue moon jinx Madly dancing in perfumed rain Raven hair dangles and lips sing of pain I am ugly, she said, to her other self, the one sealed in glass above the shelf. She gasped at her long and monstrous nose. She cringed at her hair, hanging like strings Her arms and leg just sticky things I am ugly and cannot be loved this way Tears are dried by mother’s embrace Butterfly promises emphatically made One day, sweet Brunhilda… one day. Just remember, you are different. Screeching and bellows blister her ears Hateful retorts and cruel jeers Claws that reach out but to push her away Ambivalent beauties who fall to their prey Tears are dried by mother’s embrace Butterfly promises emphatically made One day, sweet Brunhilda… one day. Just remember, you are different. Nature has a song for you. Ugliness will crumble with the chrysalis Taunting will fade to the silence of shadows Sunlight will kiss your emerging form, new goddess of morning new goddess of joy new goddess of unbridled spring Treasures and teacups and tiddly winks Oceans of onyx and blue moon jinx Joyfully dancing in perfumed rain Amethyst hair flows and lips part to sing.
