"I believe that Beauty will save the world," 
Fyodor mumbles by empty water well 
while gazing at cloudless sky of false hope 
where the silver moon contemplates the glow 
of timeless emptiness in human hearts, 
then ducks when soldiers shoot guns at the ghost. 

Two-headed princess in the forest glade, 
holding clay pot with magnolia bloom, 
smiles at the two-headed crow on its twig, 
and asks if they remember where to go 
to find the meteor that fell from the sky, 
then laughs when soldiers escape from the ghost. 

"We have one name to signify our soul," 
two-headed princess explains to Fyodor, 
"so call us Kremena when you perceive 
immortal soul that animates our hearts, 
for one of us is Beauty of the mind, 
and the other is Death who understands." 

Holding hands, Fyodor and Kremena run 
through pathless forest of the laughing ghost 
to hide from soldiers with arrogant guns 
sent by the tyrant in the golden tower 
to kill all idiots, morons, and freaks, 
cleansing vile mutants from the human race. 

Surrounded by soldiers with guns of hate 
in mountain meadow on shore of Star Lake, 
Fyodor and Kremena grasp sticks and stones, 
and he crouches to protect her from harm, 
but she opens wide black wings of desire, 
then rises upward with him in her arms. 

Astonished the two-headed princess floats 
with the idiot dangling in her arms, 
the soldiers of the tyrant stare in shock 
as she expands into huge gleam of light 
shaped like enormous hummingbird of faith 
from aurora beams of purple and green. 

Falling to their knees on the mountain meadow, 
the soldiers drop their guns and raise their arms, 
awed by epiphany of holy truth 
through revelation of the cosmic herald 
embodied by the woman with two heads 
who scatters apple seeds from generous hands. 

Two-headed princess of Zarathia, 
as symbol of Justice and Liberty, 
beams spirit of courage in hearts of people 
who rise with bold voice of democracy 
to oppose aggressive greed of the tyrant, 
inspired by Minerva with angel wings.
