Angel In Your Eyes Contest Entry

Painful Angles; Hope gets strangled New fangled fears forever dangled Entangled dreams are mostly mangled Demons wrestled then wearily wrangled StrAngels chAngeled, My sweet CocAinegeles! Those cunning exchAngeles Outlawed derAngeles... Oh, ye kind Angels, give me Peace- From your embrace, never released Envelope me, and do not cease Wrap me in your Golden Fleece! Let me taste your silver blood, And in my Heart, a joyous flood Sprouting wings, a Soul to spring, Like a flower to its bud *Angel in Your Eyes Contest Entry Author: JustThatArchaicPoet (I know this is a really weird piece, but I wanted some form "angel" in a lot of the verses, even if it's a word like "Angle". I guess it's more experimental than anything and probably not what you're looking for.)
