The Angel's Decision


I hear the Angel's thunderous cries Commanding you to stop. The largest of the troupe comes near And kneels before your face; Eye to eye Bodies so close. You ache to reach out and touch But the Angel shall not permit, For you have done too much. Worthy? No, not nearly there, Further away than the Morning Star himself. Hurt and pain course through my veins The evil you have done. The Angel's weep, They cry, they glare. Misfortune for you awaits.
