Pictures Of Purple People |
I saw this mirror, I looked through it |
Reflections looked most better than all |
Cared too much, hating hatred |
Seeing things deformed and almost cold |
Crying sadly, shielding gladly my eyes |
From the ugly side of fat men seeing, almost |
Thin men peeping, sleeping, looking, falling |
Dizzy from their windows high |
The men of magic thinking if evil |
He was bringing sunless children |
Seeing all the bad |
'Cos beauty was too ugly |
And faceless people |
Wondered at the beautiful forms they had |
Now the mirror’s broken |
I’m smiling, seeing good things |
Yet despite foot splinters swirl in the air |
Forever call him beauty |
Children come at night time |
Weird things blackening the fairest maiden’s hair |
