Incandescent Angel

Crystal breaks

across her floor

the shards are burning 

bright,

in shafts that fall,

and through it all,

I see her dimming light.

Oh, incandescent angel

dark circumstance abides,

to snuff you out

of heaven

the horse you choose to ride

heads off to the 

Appocallypse

with passion at the reins

the name you have 

upon your lips

is driving you insane.
