what is holy 


i came to this city,
before the coffeehouses,
before the tattoo palace,
before I could breathe.
and several angels walked me,
right through the darkest alleys,
til I could tell what's holy,
outside a cathedral.
- Christine Kane



i love taking pictures of my friends wearing wings in the dark. i promise that i won't put the pictures on my blog without permission. i promise that, if they let me photograph them, i will email the images to them and not even keep a copy for myself.

trust me, i say.

afterwards, i show them the pictures. i say: see - look how beautiful you are. they tell me that if i want to, i can post one of the pictures after all.

i want to.

see, look how beautiful.
