the Beast was once an infant
the same as all of you
he had his turn at childhood
but left it unamused
he tried his native language
but only knew to roar
he thrashed and disemboweled
and learned to want it more
the Beast was once an infant
but unlike all of you
he had his turn at childhood
and left it unamused
no mother ere to nurture
no father ere to guide
he found his way to Heaven
and promptly turned aside
