Now that I've Found an Angel

Now that I've Found an Angel

A Poem by Louis McKraker


I climbed Mount Everest;

  And now I find

The rush and the exhilaration

  Hung permanent fixtures in my mind�"


     (For better or worse)



I've seen the world from below,

  And I've seen it from up high;

But nothing I've seen has compared

  To making it back alive�"


     (Weathering a curse)



Yes, I'm still fighting,

  But no longer fighting alone;

Now that I've found an angel

  To bandage me and carry me back home�"


     (Solace is the purse)

INTRODUCTION

1. The title captivated my interest.

CRITICAL THINKING ???

1. Who is this Angel?
2. Is she a Fallen Angel?
3. Does he love the Angel?

QUOTE DISSECTION

1. "Hung permanent fixtures in my mind"

Beautiful play on words, Tutor.
Are these thoughts, Professor McKraker?

2. "(For better or worse)"

Is this about matrimony, Tutor?

3. "I've seen the world from below,

And I've seen it from up high;"

Is this about love of everyone?

4. "(Weathering a curse)"

It is perhaps a "curse" for unrequited love.

CONCLUSION

5. "Now that I've found an angel

To bandage me and carry me back home"

(1) The angel is love.
(2) The angel is humanity.
(3) The angel is __________________ .

Lovely work, McKraker :)
