Angel

The Ghost in the Attic

I had a metamorphosis

I gave away my pain.

I vowed to act with mercy.

Anger put me to shame

Now Angel has come home to me.

I have no time to spare

I had her dressed in aubergine

With violets in her hair.

Her dress was like the stardust

The Pleiades would wear.

She brought with her the metatron

 Phosphorus was his name.

We knew him first as Morning Star

Life here is not the same.

I thought to go to Darien

But I am laid out flat.

I saw her ghost in my old yard

My thoughts have all gone splat!
