Rusted Angel
 
chest overflowing,
    scattered riches
salt stained
       and bleeding
as silver dreams
    tarnish-
 
partially buried
    beneath squalling
   beige storms,
she frees
the moan
     into quiet sands,
with daylight tripping
              at my feet
 
send doves
  screaming white
through cumulus painted skies
heavy with blue
to carry
    sweet green peace
to my seabed chamber,
     
calm and spread
     violent indigo waves
 
    heaven's mouth
open wide
                            �take me�
 
bright golden rays 
     breathe down deep
drawing me
                        up
into tight
        tunnel visions
      equating
soothing violet light,
 
uplift
        and hold
enduring me
once more
    in feathered arms,
where the black fingers
    of deceit
cannot reach-
 
where ruby red
    passion
    drips
upon
    the entombed
and slumbering heart
    of the angel
rusting
 
        -at the bottom
             of your sea.
