she said she believed in Angels
reincarnation
was as real as silver horses
when i told her i believed in people
she never answered back
but every time the Angels called her
there was a dial tone in one ear
and her Father in the other
once the minutes of doubt
were ticking on God’s rusty clock
she never knew who had the knife
and who was going to save her
and all i know is she believed in Angels
and she couldn’t believe in Laughter
