The better Angels of our nature…
the Devil only laughs
Laying traps as yet unseen,
in virtues aftermath
Reluctant aspiration,
free will a double edge
That takes us high while honing doubts
—of falling off the ledge
(Villanova Pennsylvania: August,2019)
Bit of cynical doom in this comparing angels to devils, sad devils are overpowering.
