Snow White Blues

Snow White said to the hunter: “why are you looking at me like that, with your lips trembling and your hand steady upon your gun? You knew what you were coming here for, and I am ready. Why so much hesitation? Do it!”

Afterwards, when all was done and over with, the hunter invented a nice story of friendly dwarves, magic mirrors and a charming prince, to tell to his kids on coming home. He did so as he washed the warm juicy blood off his hands.

The forest was silent and full of maggots.

dot of truth

On a thin line between two lies,
there lies a tiny dot of truth, undecided
as per where to go
withouth being annihlated.

On both sides, far away,
at equal distances,
monstrosities grow, furious and sturdy,
roaring out to be fed.

Funambulist in equilibrium,
the dot of truth remains, praying
for the trusting, unaware lies
not to find out it exists.
