Fallen Human

This is Artifice.

By Ángel SierraPublished 4 years ago • 1 min read
Several shadowed hands touch a glowing blue pod.

I'm your modeling creature.

I'm your fallen angel.

I sing to the ether—

Take a breather.

Leave the smoke at the door.

I'm a battling alien,

Dealing with ill intent...

From the supersonic internet.

Less than human—it's innocent.

Leave your clothes on the floor.

○

It's the price for a ticket.

It's my feed for your feast.

Get a sweet taste of me?

Your bite is a cheap trick.

○

Cos I am the golden.

I am not chosen.

I just chose myself.

I hope you'll choose me.

I just might choose you.

If you don't chew me—

Up, then spit-out me.

I have fallen...

In love with a human.

Shadowed woman with neon blue wings lit behind her on the wall.
