The world reflects everything
from everyone, but luckily
we see very little of it
Except, unfortunately, the queen
who gains in beauty every day
But young men don't see it
They shout: the princess
is more beautiful - their fantasy
of daily pleasure, a dream
of effortlessly becoming king
So Helen does not trust herself
She looks in the mirror
that lies a false truth
she walks to the lake
(guards follow her remotely)
Her eyes search the water
her lips talk to the wash of the waves
her hands reach for a golden fish
