Question: Very short: Does it make any sense!?
Wings pierce through my back
As the colourful bursts
of transcended souls
Across the night skies
Cast flickers upon my face,
Beckoning me to fly
And merge into the starsWww@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
To die, and become angel, immortal in the infinite!.

Nice thoughts, in mortal moments, probably late at night, lonely and alone!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It's another nice one!. Here's a suggestion though, to do with as you will:

I think the first line sounds a little violent!.
Typically, "piercing" implies something poking in from the outside, like a dagger piercing flesh or a pin piercing a baloon!. This makes it seem like the wings are being rammed into you!. (Maybe that's what you're saying, but the peacefulness of the remaining lines would indicate otherwise!.)

Perhaps something like "wings sprout (or emerge, or grow, etc!.) from my back" would be more effective!? This would imply that the wings are coming out of you and giving you the power -- or manifesting your desire -- to fly into the stars; rather than being thrust into you and compelling you to answer the beckoning of the transcended souls!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

It's nice, just try to find something to replace "pierce"!. Just my opinion, it doesn't flow with the rest of the piece for me!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
