Dark Angel...

Having been on the receiving end of
death,
I have found new life & a job I like...


Poem Artwork

Dark Angel…


 


Here I have been referred to as such,


My picture above saying as much,


I have to agree, as I do seem to clutch,


The darker arts with both hands I touch…


 


Not so bad being a dark angel,


Nine to five job working for Archangel,


Guiding the newly died to heavens gate,


Driving my chariot across the clouds,


Awaiting that of my next appointment, yes date…


 


I get to intermingle with life in general,


Not that I can even jingle a bell, remaining most venerable,


The beings alive; have no interest in me, nor are they knowledgeable,


Regards my job, until they die and looking for the way to eternal life…


 


Scoop them up I do, into my chariot, so new,


My old one was an out of date model,


The archangel knew of this, giving me a new one with all the options,


So now I have heat and air-conditioning, and a radio,


The only station I listen to is WHEVN, keeping track of the news,


For that is where, for the most part, I achieve my job cues…

This was great - so funny and so clever!!

It reminds me that far too often we take such matters too serious - it's a wonderful thing to add the element of humor!!!

Well done!
