In this quiet time
The world recedes. The leaves stir
and tell me secrets.

Angel tears
What makes angels cry? Is it something I've done or something I didn't?
The burning grief of phoenix and angel alike tell us that tears heal.
Is it in the dew? Sobs hidden in the thunder? Or sighs in the fog?
Stop being so bad or the angels will weep, they said, and the angel wept anyway.
Bad girls make them cry. That's what they said.
When she wept the angels joined her.
"You bad little girl! Stop being so bad! The angels must be weeping!"
Yes. They weep for her.
