paper from the sky

A tattered clipping,

band-aid sized,

inscribed:


this is your last warning,

stop hanging curtains

with your girlfriend.


Emergency procedures

and pilgrimages

are required.


The beasts are flying,

eager to drop their eggs,

and it's not Easter yet.


There will be no

resurrection,

but rest assured,


plenty of lambs

will be roasted

over the fiery pit,


until the snakes crawl out

from their burrows

and stop spitting flame.


Because after all,

they're the ones to blame,

aren't they?
