Analysis of The glass whale angel



There was a delicate presence that had landed on earth during the night.
It was a flying glass whale.
Now it hid under the sea searching for its family in hidden underwater islands lost to sea such a long time ago.
When it found its family it transformed itself into a beautiful angel.
