Excessive Night's Toll

Excessive Night's Toll

A Poem by peculiar
"

Written many months back, when I was in a cynical stage

"
Angels lie
Taking your hand only when you die.

Vultures in white
What a sickening sight
They come for you at night
When you're down and can't put up a fight

They come from all sides
Bearing down
tearing you up
Till all that's left
is mutilated flesh

Raw and fresh

This is a powerfully-told alternative to the usual angel narrative Peculiar; cynical is putting it mildly but its very imaginative and has some proudly dark imagery. I enjoyed it :)
Thanks for sharing
