UntitledA Poem by Jose Camacho
An angel cried to an empty heaven;
To a God no longer real. A woman cried a tear of blood; The angel was a mother. An offering in exchange for a memory; The power of a holy word. "Amen my holy father." A meaningless prayer was said aloud. The angel's hope was lost. The mother; no longer a believer. Heaven never seemed so dead, And a God never seemed so cruel. A mother cried for mercy, The angel inside her also wept. The heavens blackened as she sang in pain, A vengeful song of fear and hate. The mother seemed to lose herself; And angels begged for forgiveness. A child writhed in puddles of remorse, Both condemned by such abominable God.
