In my Father’s Image

I fear the darkness of the evening’s smile
Because I know it will be the final kiss
When ancient debts and promises are bled
Into the eyes and mouths of wingless Angels
Then projected into the dreams of those real Angels
As silver crucifixes crying auburn tears
Originally regurgitated from the worm’s belly
Born within the core of the first apple
A gift from the procreator
To whom I owe
This sinful,
Most times loving,
Unspectacular,
And still unpolished,
Faithful soul.

Marcel

Night is when thoughts are freed to dalliance.  Sometimes lingering too intently...where we come from reflects that which we were born to...not who we are...and not who we were born to be.
Nice to read you again Keith.
