if not for demons and archangels
to fight it out in the lumpy
bodies of human beings
who don’t even believe
in them anymore which
is both ironic and iconic
our time in which the tragic
makes its final appearance
as a world of flesh and blood
never before or since will life
seem more or less impure
like these family origins of fall
where everything given is taken back
and the first leaf falls for us all
