Like and angel

Abounding in golden fire

Surreal in a realist world

They sacrificed your wings

On the altar of imagination

All the better to fit you into

The straight jacket of their fears

Like the quintessence of dust you wait

More dead in life than in death

Ashes to ashes

Lust to dust

Author's Note: Another poem written in my English class for this short assignment thing sort of having to do with Hamlet. However, it is also the majority a original piece I wrote based on an occurrence I saw in someones Livejournal that made me want to write a story, which I will hopefully be doing for nanowrimo. Almost every line in this poem was inspired by something or other and if you really want the details...just ask. I hope you like this...although, it may definitely be up for rewriting...
