Started as an average day, but then things went very strange

I saw you smile while watching a death

Your gaze was as fixed and unmoving as the body you observed

My back began to arch involuntarily

As if a raging bull was attempting to gore me from the inside out, bones began to sprout out of my scapula

Bones with colourless feathers but

They demanded your attention like food in a famine

I only seem high and mighty, because you are abysmal

Watch me ascend even further

Am I a self-righteous bastard?

If yes, then clip my wings

But, if you hesitate to denude me of my grace

I will viciously blind you with light

Am I an Angel or just a wolf with wings?

Searching for what’s right

Trying not to smite

But this is not alright

My feathers are turning black

You will see the light

I am self-righteous and I will correct you

Fuck you

Halo clouding the sky

This really went awry

In between the ring

There is a light

But not just any light

There are locusts in its rays

In between the ring

The locusts tussle with godly beings

Who will win?

You decide

I’m frightened for what this really means for me
