I saw her eyes, pure and white
I never saw her face because she warned I might go blind.
I never saw her smile, not even once in a lifetime.
She warned me not to go near earthlings
For people, as far as she told, hated us.
I didn't know why,
My mother and me were detested so much.
Maybe because we were rich, for we could take anything we wanted.
Humans, she told would avoid and fear our arrival.
Why did their lips never formed curves to welcome us,
I wondered.
'Oh!' They say,
'Death brings misery with herself'
But of course, a mother would take her child with herself,
wherever she goes.
