The Descent

A Poem by J Todd Underhill

06/04/2019

A loud liquid thud,

Dust disturbed.

Battered and bruised.

Cherubim and Seraphim moan.

The Harps in Heaven silenced.

All things happen with reason.

No recollection,

No memory of before.

Dazed and confused.

The veil has closed.

Out of the night sky,

Just like a lightning bolt.

An angel has fallen.
