Chapter 3: In which two brothers have an innocent conversation...
X
Before humanity, the brothers,
Harmonious, united, steadfast...
And I alone, watched in shadow,
As Michael and Lucifer sat by the celestial sea,
Lucifer, fingers dipped in the shallows,
ripples spreading in waves of color.
"Do you suppose, brother,
that somewhere out there,
He has other children?"
Michael, Father's faithful servant,
laughed.
"Of course not! We are his Angels,"
And, starlight-glistening wings unfurling,
Michael told of life as Heaven's statesman,
removed from barren Earth
and its turbulent chaos.
I squirmed at the gleam in Lucifer's eye
at the word "Earth,"
and refused to admit
my own fascination
with that grubby sphere.
