Literature Text

Man's head mounts the wall

Man's ribs usher spectators

What is that, father”

The monster, son.”


The boy's heads were two

The father's eyes were four

Their faces gnarled,

Their bodies far more.


“But they do not -look- scary, Father”

The congregation regarded him

Ah, but they were sinning,

lusting, feuding, greedy seeds”


The boy's teeth elongated

The father's jutted more

Their eyes pure black

Their souls were far more


But they do not look evil, Father”

A disembodied head's glazed eyes

Lethargically glared his way

Only on the outside, my son.”

Evil is subjective. Or were we all-along?

There is evil out of hate and evil out of not caring about the others.

You can close your eyes and leave someone die of starvation or you may kill him with a knife.
