An Angel

An Angel…Or? I knew as soon s she came in she was from a place I hadn’t been… before. She was silent. sat down and began some embroidery work, a silk dress for a delightful nuptial. By the entrance to a house we stood kissing, the door was black as the entrance to hell, and the ground was white as snow…her eyes bottomless green, flickered in desire. Search light, we had been caught in the glare unbecoming lust, and ran to a bus shelter. Silent rain like tears, knew I had to run away, she wanted me to take the lift heavenward. The elevator out of order, and her face was lost in a miasma of the unremembered.
