the angel knelt in solemn prayer <br />with darkest wings and darkest hair <br />his eyes aglow in starless nights <br />yes, there will be blood tonight <br /> <br />he rises up with sword in hand <br />dark and ominous, he stands <br />his saber glinting in moonlight <br />yes, there will be blood tonight <br /> <br />watching now with piercing eyes <br />his tongue slick with unspoken lies <br />bracing mind, he runs to fight <br />yes, there will be blood tonight <br /> <br />his horse astride, his sword held high <br />he bellows glory to the sky <br />the townspeople begin their plight <br />yes, there will be blood tonight <br /> <br />soaring now into the air <br />with darkest wings and darkest hair <br />he dives, his face a horrid fright <br />yes, there will be blood tonight <br /> <br />our avenging angel, cool and clear <br />inspiring the blackest fear <br />with darkest wings he has taken flight <br />yes, there had been blood tonight<br /><br />The Bloodrose<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/avenging-angel/
