Analysis of DEATH and its Angel
shelina denise chapman 1986 (norfolf, va)
DEATH IS death, the luminous
angel, Neigh,
the glorious falcon furor phoenix flame,
glorious 'neath the Skies.
Harvesting the Moon of Doctrine, harvesting the moon of May,
leaving a Cassandra, leaving a dorock
leaving a kaleidoscope of awe and embers, leaving a dorock
DEATH is Aphrodite, DEATH is Lucifer
DEATH is silent and gay AND...an angelic lesbian
how easily Death mocks Us, We, the people called Earth
We the people reached Deaf.
