ANGELICA AWAITS

 

Dante’s angels have come for their souls,

they pounce on the unwary and the vulnerable.

No one is safe, for when you close your eyes

they will strike.

They show no mercy in their search for eternal youth,

it could be your soul or mine spirited away in

the night.

Angelica smiles from the moon,

she is all white and sensual but in a second

she bares her teeth, age old teeth yellow and cracked.

She is Dante’s lover and a soul hunter.

Her beauty is her power above Men and God.

When she has taken every soul on Earth

Dante will come to claim what has always

been his.

Angelica his lover will be by his side,

the Earth will be theirs forever…
