Sunset in Vienna

He fell slowly
Like the seraphims from heaven held him
Past the windows with a neatly knotted tie
A body does not fall so fast
I was sitting on a park bench
With a beer and a book
I had noticed a figure idling on the roof earlier
With the worst in my mind I'd kept my eye on him for a short time
I watched him
I watched him drop
The sunset was especially red that evening
