you are
you are
a better person
than me by far
you the playwright
director and star
of your own
film fantasy
in which you
have cast me
as a horrible
hideous monstrosity
you made me feel
the part so well
by treating me
like a creature
from the depths
of hell
you cast yourself
as the sweet demure
pretty and pure
princess of peace
against me the big
bad ugly beast
to make me still
more sinister
you got a heretic
dishonest minister
and his village
congregation
to further insure
my condemnation
but the ending had
a miscalculated twist
you were not only beauty
you were the mad scientist
and the monster you made
of me you'll find
is the monster inside
of your own mind
