Arms of an Angel

Summary:

Just a short poem about Rue's death.

Work Text:

The mockingjays whistling still in yonder trees,
a cry of primal terror,
her eyes go wide, then scrunched in pain,
the sharpened spear embedded in her gut,
the arms of an angel surrounding her, comforting her,
a sweet voice lulling her to sleep, to death,
she staggers and collapses upon the bloody ground.
