an angel

Embrace, sketch by Killbuck, concept and project Matt Schultz.

Not long ago, an angel came

knocking at my door

he was handsome, mighty and kind

and had the most orgasmic hands

I have ever seen

hands that if touched you

could turn you into

tiny spheres of desire

he gave me a hug once,

a warm embrace

I will never forget

he came in a turbulent period of my life,

during which I was

dealing with devilish stuff

I had lost my mind for a powerful demon

a towering creature who could

pierce your heart with a simple glance

there were two problems with this demon:

he could only speak through metaphors

and was in love with somebody else

so I wandered into the labyrinth of my heart

opened it and let all my emotions flow

for this demon in articulate intricate ways

I did not even know I could find

knowing that nothing more would ever come from that

this angel and this demon

were very good friends

and at a certain point we found ourselves

playing together in a dangerous game

of love effusions

this angel and this demon

talked about me and even told

each other what I had privately told

each of them

and I asked myself

what is going on?

Should the three of us all dance together then?

And why on earth is the angel behaving

like the demon?

Can he only speak through metaphors as well? 

Is he in love with somebody else too?

I have not found out yet
