I love the rational that you use concerning the angels. We each have our own beliefs, but I have to agree that angels are everywhere; they just don't interfere with our choices. Most of them don't have free will like us mortals, but it's fun to imagine what they would be like living among the rest of us. Great poem. Thanks for sharing.

Who determined angels were neither male nor female? The picture freaked us out but your authors notes were very good and right on. Each of us have our own personal guardian angel. God loves you and so do we.

Dean,
First ... one spaggie ...

Why do my demons torment me so? (LOL misspelled torment)

The piece is awesomely written. I feel it. I do have to tell you that I believe that the theory of "androgynous" angels as poppycock. LOL Man has many wonderful reasons for perpetuating this myth. One of these days we can debate all this but for today I will say ... nice work with the poem.
Love,
Barbara

Feeling as though I've been on a journey
of parallel where on the edge have encountered
both heaven and hell...What one think is love
can take us through many halls and portals, where
in our deepest soul is desecrated by our own
emotions. Breath taking presentation.

Very different from the norm. I love how you can diversify your writing, hopping from genre to genre, style to style. Visually, this poem is stunning. From the pic to the font and color choice, a great treat to view. The poem itself flows like water, with a whimsical lightness powerful, prayer-like quality.

    Thanks so much, my friend. Yeah, my mind goes in a hundred different directions at once. Some days, my muse carries me away to brightly lit, happy places, and then, there are those times...well, we all know what comes about from THOSE "other" times, right?

    Thanks again, TJ!

That artwork is spectacular. Your poem is indeed a very darker and more sinister version of a love poem. I liked it because I think it is very clever and creative. The rhythm is great. Thanks for the author's notes. :) Sandra

Outstanding! As with every piece of your work that I have read, there are underlying subjects and meaning. Depth and darkness stir our thoughts in most. This is very different from any of your other works that I have read; however, it's just as masterfully written and thought out.

Thanks for an outstanding poem!

Such as mysterious poetry. I can't determine whether the angels are fallen or not. I guess there are two and the fallen and the stand-up angel are whispering.

    Hey, Satan himself was the most beautiful angel in Heaven. So much so, he felt he would rebel and form an army against God. But, according to Biblical scripture, he was defeated and cast out of Heaven, along with all of his rebellious followers. These are the fallen angels of whom I speak.

    Thanks, JM. I appreciate the read and the review!

    Yeah, he thought he was bigger, but he didn't take paradox into consideration. Great pleasure.

Wow again Dean. You keep coming up with these and I am going to believe that you are simply one of them. Heheheh seriously now, it's beautiful in a dark sort of way.
