[bodytext] => The angel. White cloth flutters through the sky, Waves of brilliant silk, winding rhythmically like An enchanted dance. Colorless hairs spray the silk, The wind is a beast drinking her up. The angel… Is falling. A flock of doves take off. They cover the eastern sky in waves. A little girl points at them and lets out A cry of joy. As the cross each other dutifully, Paying tribute as one of the stars, Falls from the sky. Somewhere the purest soul on earth, Begins to weep. The whales cry out in eerie notes. A whales song, Sends shivers down a sailors neck, As he packs up to go home. A man in a window, marks the Place where the star falls. Marker, he places, on a map, Already covered in little black X’s. He lets out a sigh of tragedy, And takes his place back at the Window. Watching for the next star, To be cast from heaven.
