Goodnight.
And before late
it has begun.
+--+
An unnerving epic
of meddled illusions
portrayed though
blackened windows.
Paradise, paradox
pleasure and prophecy.
What grand displays
of cruelty and deceit
sewn into the very
fabric of life and death.
Their meaning
beyond grasp
as sand through
open fingers.
Blowing far and fast
in the euphoric discord
of the angel's decay.
+--+
Daylight breaks
as blackened windows
fade back to grey.
And before dawn
it is done.
