Chasing Halos


This image is entitled Neon Angel 13.

Chasing Halos

She spent most of her youth
chasing her halo
as it rolled away from God.

By the time she realized
it was gone,
she had two children
and the memory
of the man that fathered them.

She spent her days
sealing her fate
never quite cognizant
that her daughters
were chasing halos
of their own.

I like the image of chasin halos as it rolls away... It's that focus on the ground and the one thing we try to reach that we do not notice anything else... You have a knack for showing simple human truths in beautiful and haunting imagery. What talent, you are amazing! :)
