1 " THE MOTHERis always two faced.At best, she wishes youinto being. Yes it was shecried at the seven drops of blood that fell,staining the snow - shewho bargained crazily with Fatefor that long-waited childas red as bloodas white as snowand when you came true it wasshe who clapped her hands merrily becauseshe was as happy as a Queen could be.But she's always dying early,so often it begins to look deliberate,abandoning you,leaving you to the terrible mercyof the Worst Mother, the one who marriedyour father.She doesn't like you, sheprefers all your sisters, sheloves her sons.She's jealous of mirrors.She wants your heart in a casket...
