Silver linings
Are dreams of clouds
Yet with a sliver of silver
We take to the skies
The angels ask us
To keep their silence
The price for our forbidden flight
But enamored by beauty
Befuddled by grace
we are forever chasing after
that which we wish were
A dozen glass roses
velvet lined stairs
Glass ballroom slippers
Pearls in our hair
Slivers of longing
Are what we have left
The angels disapprove
Silence is broken
The vow unfulfilled
A dozen gold roses
To pave all the stairs
and golden glass slippers
To match our hair
Silence lingers
We are struck blind
The angels turn their backs to us
The gates of heaven are closed
Not even the holiest of days
Will cleanse our souls
Goyim
Infidels
******
a dozen red roses
Line the graves to the stairs
They shattered our slippers
And tore out our hair
