angels are not [appears in self-published book Chokehold]

—

grinning mouth of chaos,

alluring glass conduit to numb realms –

silver-lipped cherubs falling from acid sky

screaming, severed wings trailing behind –

silver-lipped cherubs impacting ground

splattering into bloody mounds of flesh

crawling with flies

—

angels are dark demons in disguise

—

gaping mouth of chaos,

clear glass circle of stinging poison

swallowing flesh and bone

grinding marrow to dust

—

snakes in the mouths of mute infants

—

bloody lips of chaos

curiously beautiful

as they kiss

the foreheads of pious traitors

—

angels are dark demons

—

vultures fill the boiling acid sky.
