Dark Angel - Empty Tomb

The angel inside the empty tomb.



The empty tomb, with the rock rolled away.

I went over to the Cross early one a.m. just after this had been constructed. It was nice and cool inside, but other than the empty ledge where Jesus had lain and the dark angel pictured up above, there's nothing in there...except for that morning, when the ledge was occupied by a sleeping hitchhiker, his head propped up on his backpack. I'm pretty sure it wasn't Jesus.

I spun around like a shot (thinking of the possible headlines: "Man found stabbed to death in religious exhibit") and got out of there as fast as my chubby little legs would carry me.

Then I slammed into the low overhang of the entrance to the tomb.
