A Different Whole
“We live between
the beasts and the Angels”
On this topic
Augustine was right
Our intellects bear
what our impulses share
Separating the wrong
from the right
We live between
the Lord and the devil
Each claiming a stake
in our souls
As primates absolved
into humans evolved
Two halves
—of a now different whole
(St Davids Pennsylvania: June, 2019)
