Learning from the Streets

Written at the foot of this today, the knife angel is currently being displayed next to MIMA in Middlesbrough.

Knife angel.

Hands pained,

Open.

Eyes vacant,

Tearful.

Shoulder broad,

Holding.

Wings rusted,

Shielding.

Heart hidden,

Hurting.

Head bowed,

Grieving.

Fingers encouraging,

Hoping.

Wrists poised,

Arrested.

Knife angel,

Standing.

Knife angel,

Hoping.

Knife angel,

Lifing.

Knife angel,

Feeling.

Knife angel,

Redeeming.
