A God’s man once said I’ll turn to gold, I’ll be forgiven for sins when i grow old. I’ll be named a dove when I am a crow, black feathers sheathed in innocence and a ****** to take the heaven’s. Of lies and tales form me a halo and the name of Lucifer.
The final entry
There's so much behind the doors of site.

A caged crow locked away in fear of revolution, kingdom’s starved minds and broken dreams only fueling the tyrant’s blade, cut me down in trembling hands and a now ****** soul, sinned within the chapels of innocence. The gates are opening in warmth for its doom for the angels have sinned and the divine are demons.

Time freezing these dreams that were flowing along this river of hopes and halos I’m trying to be innocent.
Trying to be a better me.
Trying to be patient but my wings trifle among the trees, trifles in this cage.
Trifles cloaked in beige, trifles I need to fix before this river thaws.
Before I lose it all.
Before I’m among the clouds with black feathers. before the Tyrant finds my sins, I’m gone.
This is the first entry from a three part I had recently made.

Once upon a time,
You called me an angel.

So for once,
I'll try flying up high,
Soaring into the wind.
Secretly hoping I'll fall forever instead.

A grizzly man just sunk a stripe in the corner pocket
Another bought himself company in a glass
One pulls out a cigarette and sticks it between his lips
Soon a spark ignites and a spirit starts to rise

Over head the hum of jets fly by

Across the street sits an old rusty park
Two kids are there, who knows from where
They look happy to be free
A dog squatting just behind a tree

The flying angels left their halo

A block down the street
People gather to watch the lighting of the Christmas tree
Some in the coffee shop
Sipping on sugar and caffeine

The halo starts to whistle

The town is lit up as to say thanks to our lord
Instruments take the stage
Rock around the Christmas tree begins to play
Children yawn and parents laugh as it’s getting late

The whistle shows his face

The festivities stop
Screams of panic fill the night
Kisses and hugs, loved ones holding tight
The smoke in the bar has risen ceiling high

The face opens his mouth and laughs out loud

Silence overtakes the night
Just for a split second before a column of bright
Cauterizes the flesh and melts the bones
Once a joyful town, now is gone

This was the third one tonight

The unlikeliest people have
wings on their backs
peace in their souls
and halos under hats
Never judge someone by their appearance. You have no idea what they could do to help you in your time of need. So treat all you meet with the kindness they rightfully deserve. The world would be a better place for it.

This poem was inspired by Sue's work so it's a dedication to her! Thanks so much, and be back soon!
