Poem By Else Cederborg: "The Man Who Hated Himself"

  


Born he was

and loved 

Everyone adored him

except one: He hated himself

 

"A knife in his heart

make it red-hot and turn it around 

let the blood run ...." he hizzed

The man in the mirror listened and smiled

 

This hatred come from nowhere

(or so it seemed)

and what's more, it ran its own course

as the blood never was his

but spilled it was
