i swear he was an angel
Posted on 13-10-2025 | Last edited on 13-10-2025i swear i saw an angel
standing there across the road
he had no glowing halo
nor did wings adorn his back
and from his eyes no light would shine
i swear he was an angel
sure as night and day oppose
with bitter gaze he beckoned
never certain who would come
and all around him spirits stirred
i know he was an angel
who could such an air possess
in stygian palettes shrouded
deathly pallor covered skin
and all around the dead arose
