HEART

Angels who bask in halos
Neon rings of holiness
Wings as fragile as glass
As inconsistant as light
Grace their slender backs
They rise into the thick darkness
Followed by streams of fire
Tender
Wise
Young
Their eyes hold the sea
They translate as beauty to the mind
For we cannot know their souls

BLOOD

What wonder and beauty
The blood of your being
The makings of you
A creature of forgotten time
Entrapped in a mortal vessel
Your eyes betray eternity
Your breath creates the oceans waves
Your eyes reveal their depths
Don't think I don't know your true self
Don't think I can't see past your face
Oh dear angel
Where are your wings
Did they break during your fall from heaven?
However black their feathers be
Let them enfold me

PULSE

Naked
Pinned like a butterfly
Naked save for the drippings of his own blood
Boken wings

Man-
Crucified on the cross of God
Crucified on the cross of knowlage

Where angels fall
And spatter their blood on the earth
Seeds take root

Where seeds take root
A tree grows
With beautiful sparkeling fruit.

Eat not from this tree.
This is the tree my servent's blood.
And though you are holy
And destined to become Seriphim
If you eat from this tree
Your fledgeling wings will shrivel
And your place in heaven will be shut off forever

We are angels
Doomed to walk this earth
For the fruit of the kings of heaven
Were temptation

Had we but known
Had we been given as much chance to grow
As that cursed tree
Prehaps we would know better.

PS
Your description of the angels' wings is absolutely awesome!
Wings as fragile as glass
As inconsistant as light
Grace their slender backs
They rise into the thick darkness
Followed by streams of fire
