Dangerous Angels

Blood, a blink, brings to life still statues: pillars of faith, gargoyles of fable. They were everything that wasn’t, that could never be, friezes of fantasy. Now, unfrozen, they kill dreams with proof.

You think you fight for truth, but every proof of reality, realer than it was before, is your enemy. Your true champion is lies, lies that children may lie in bed and close their eyes, dreaming Hell-demons and Masters of evil are only real in slumber.

You save the world so they may forget.

Tell loved ones to close their eyes.

To yourself you say, don’t blink.

Aces. Really, I never thought of the connection, but it's totally apt and now makes so much sense. And an excellent theme, that the biggest things you fight against are the things that no one's ever going to thank you for, because the whole point is that you kept them from happening.
