Angels
I used to think
angels were
a symbol
of protection
of hope
and light
and peace
but I have seen
angels with teeth
bared like
wolves
hungry for blood
(my blood)
and willing to rip
flesh from
bone
in their desperate
primal urge
I have seen angels
walk me into
a busy road
of traffic
and have me
lay on the
concrete
I have seen angels
pour βjust one
moreβ
drink down
my throat
no, angels
do not
protect you
when they are
the manifestation
of your
nightmares
