i sensed rather than saw there in the corner a dark angel hanging upside down from the ceiling of my room tea stained wings folded like a cocoon silent screams piercing my soul with electric guitars screeching within eyes the color of ice water stabbing searching my soul. for what? did they think me a threat. little me? why? i could barely fathom the magnitude the expanse of the surface skimmed unconnected morsels weaved inside a web of too much. & for a minute half awake i cringed my fear swallowing me in a sea of hell inside my heart beating like an injured bird inside my hand. & for a second i believed it was real. i saw you too. you felt it in your dreams
and to this day, angel of death or angel of truth or just a half dreamt up vision going "poof." i still don't know. but this i do. after that winter i wasn't so scared anymore

[note: A couple of years ago I woke up one night from a nightmare and felt a presence in my room that scared the shit out of me. A friend explained afterwards that he believed there are watchers (angels) observing us (and sometimes testing us by revealing themselves). This was at a time in my life when I was exploring my spirituality beyond the borders of my christian upbringing. And he said that maybe I touched onto something and made "them" notice me. For obvious reasons this freaked me out a little. But I don't know that I believe(d) it. It never happened again. I thought about this incident the other day and wrote this piece.]
