CRYSTAL
My name is Crystal,
I was born in the darkest hour of the night,
Perhaps that is why I am so unlucky,
I killed my mother at birth,
Ripping her open with my abnormally large head,
The midwife diagnosed it as a curse,
The villagers diagnosed it as bad luck,
But the doctors diagnosed it as Macrocephaly,
Still my father was unhappy,
He took off with Aunt Kate,
Living me to my fate,
So I lie in the mad all day,
With fat flies to keep me company,
And with dogs to comfort me,
For my fellow men do not recognize me as one of them..
