“Death makes angels of us all and gives us wings where we had shoulders as smooth as ravens claws” – Jim Morrison (An American Prayer)

I passed you walking out of
the grocery store on
Saturday night

I was buying mozzarella cheese
Because I have been
Craving that lately

Anyway, I was walking
Behind you with my
mozzarella cheese
and to be honest
some cookies
even though I was
supposed to be buying
things that were
healthy because
we are trying to
watch our cholesterol

I was walking behind
and noticed you
had fairy wing tattoos
where you once had shoulders

and I wondered if you had
ever heard
an American prayer

and if you like mozzarella cheese
