Earth Angels

We are earth angels,
you and I

We walk the streets with bread in our pockets
feed truth to those who can’t be sated

We convene with demons on the lam
coax their claws out of the eyes of righteousness

We tear the flesh and dare not heal it
light the garden of your darkness with our seeping wounds

We grow flora in our hair, nurture earth’s creatures in our bosom
wash in salvation of the earth and stars and tides and of heaven itself

We tear down walls with artistry,
dance the feeling onto each page caressed with holy fire

We renounce the vows of poverty, silence, and suffering carried for lifetimes,
made for holy men but not for human angels

We are the earth’s mighty angels, you and I
ordained for the deliverance of men across doorsteps
of light and love, into the arms of the ancient spirit of One
