El Ultimo Angel/The Last Angel Poem by Aram Stefanian

The obscure planet received me in dead silence
A skillion miles away from home, I felt lonesome
It was an exact replica of earth, though lifeless
With neither sunsets nor dawns it seemed tiresome
On the seventh day I ran into an angel who looked sad
He asked, ''What are you seeking in this forsaken world? ''
I told him I had to land on earth, and took the wrong route
While I talked, I saw how he himself at someone hurled
When the fiends crept out of the ground, I was told to stay put
He hissed at them, casting a spell, and they faded out
Said he was the last angel at the gates of the shadow of death
He was tired of war with the alien demons, and needed a timeout
I agreed to be his partner and fight evil to my last breath
