disappointed angel

"Angels" have tried to help me but I far too frequently miss the point.

I’ve disappointed heaven

and I can tell you why -

I angered a silver angel

who came down from the sky.

She said, “I'm just a messenger

sent to share the word.”

I stood stone-still and waited

and this is what I heard:

“The coming Judgement will fulfil

- the rightful verdict of the Lord.”

“OK…” I answered, shyly -

in an effort to prompt for more.

But the seraphim started fading away

as if the message finished her chore..

I said, “Wait! I need a message I understand

- you have to give me more.”

The angel's face turned angry

and her tone became unkind -

she flipped her hair like a mean

girl and muttered “NEVERMIND”.

So if you’re messaged by an angel,

I hope you fare better than me

- I couldn’t decipher the message

- and she flew off angrily.
