The Angels Are Tired of the Clever
The angels are tired of the clever. And it was but yesterday that an angel said to me: “We created hell for those who glitter. What else but fire can erase a shining surface and melt a thing to the core?”

This is beautiful Juilee, yet powerful and strong. A great message coupled with a fabulous image – Cant get much better than this!
Juilee Pryor replied
Thanks Julie that’s great to hear… I don’t do a lot of photo manipulation with my images so this is a bit of an experiment ….... and I’ve always been affected by the poetry of Kahil Gibran… he really was a prophet I think….. anyway I’m really pleased you like this…....:)

Juilee Pryor replied
thank you so much lightsmith…. it’s almost like a veiled threat is contained within the verse so it’s very mysterious…. I might keep playing around with the text though I’m still not sure about how I’ve got it in this image…. anyway thanks again…..:)
Rhana Griffin
I too am tired of the clever… oh so very very tired… There is a quality about the combination of this image and these words that speak to my very soul Juilee.
Juilee Pryor replied
that is great to hear Rhana…. KG’s poetry is just top of the pops for me and I like the idea of trying to illustrate it somehow…... so glad you like this…....:)
