Monoliths, Stained-glass, & Vestigial Wings

You can see him, there,


in the mirroring eyes:


the fallen seraph


hiding behind the smile.




He is umbilic-less;


he finds in the darkness,


the bright glass – solace.


It is never enough;




the subsistence continues—


for melodies persist


even as lyrics disperse


along the vaulted angles.




---




Absent the close-tucked


memories, the layered tufts—


pinioned, he stalks this world;


unbearably light.
