Of course there are angels out there

they're there

just waiting for us to show ourselves

to be who we are

and at that time

they will appear

as spiders

trying

trying just to touch us

for a moment

two beings being 

never knowing where we're going.

This is lovely. Subtle and delicate. Made me think of whispers and lonely hearts and touching. And hope.

They will appear as spiders - I like that because even as they try to touch us, unknowing, we might not let them. Gently written.

how many spiders would balance on the tip of a full stop? I wish there was angels. All I see are devils.
