slender fingers outstretched,
palms upturned,
your wounds are your stigmata,
an unholy ecstasy.
alabaster skin stained red,
sheets soaked in sweat,
hair plastered to your face.
how can agony be so beautiful?
surrounded in filth you are an angel
fallen to earth,
fallen to the gutter,
fallen into sin.
have you returned to your heavenly home?
i think i can hear your sigh
as you are welcomed to salvation.
the smell of your blood makes me puke.
