Synopsis: There is Maleficent, the villainous witch from the classic tale of Sleeping Beauty. This is the story told from her perspective.

art thou so bare and full of wretchedness
and fearest to die? famine is in thy cheeks
need and oppression starveth in thy eyes
contempt and beggary hangs upon thy back

the world is not thy friend, nor the world’s law --
the world affords no law to offer thee love
