Each point has been put forth
The facts of the case are all out in the open
The judgement to be passed is on a woman's character;
The jury might claim it was her double who killed Bluebeard afterall.
The slave girl;
Dark, violent, the sea, beautiful beast.
In China they consider beasts in bottles -
Submit (they say) to every kind of distortion or be locked up in footwear forever.
Such joy to watch the sea turn to pond or painting.
Quiet.
Still.
Dumb.
Dead.
