Demonisation (Horns)

As inspired by the movie ‘Horns’, but not following its plot…

When he first sprouted a horn,
he was shunned,
as if he was a demon.

When he sprouted another horn,
he was further shunned,
as if he became more demonic.

When he sprouted a tail,
he was chased away,
as if he is truly now a demon.

The demonsation completed,
not by his own efforts alone,
but by others’ perceptions too?

The demonisation
made the demonisers
the true demons?

Others’ demonisation
made him demonise them
and thus himself too?

Where does demonsation begins?
first in who’s mind,
or first in who’s form?

Even if we can’t seem
to always control our bodies,
we must always control our minds!
