ii.

Angels do have preferences.
Castiel has always preferred
a male form -

(blond hair
                                            clumsy
                                                thin lips)

Father

the stuff of earth
    human behavior and movement
        physicality -
        so hypnotizing.
i do not understand it, this urge
    never really will.

(perfect skin. strange things:
                a frown
                    a face - )

Castiel laughs.
a strange sound, rich and full,
    beautiful

what other reason is there?

“In time, you will understand.”

for a moment, he is out of reach.

“We have work to do.”

(When he finds the right one he lets himself
fall, reckless in his need.
There is pain, and he knows his power -

his future self is screaming               
                              Dean is nearby with closed eyes.
                        Castiel's body crumples, the shape of his wings
                            etched in the ground.

- Dean comes in the night
and lets his fingers drift.

Sleep, human and effortless,
is all he can give him.

it will be enough.)
