John Loving Iii Poet Free verse

Friends of the Twins Metatron and Sandalphon

Three Popes died within six years
I wonder if what killed them 
were the sum of their fears
Could the cause be what they
covered or uncovered
The bible speaks of kings
who's wickedness God discovered
Historically their causes
were just and awed
But Heaven alone judges
the guilt of it's laws 
It took six years to stop
the naming of angels
And the most we don't know
because of their angle
So just for the record 
I'll untangle the tangle
Nine angels minus two
so scholars can tango

Michael the warrier
"Who is like God"
Gabriel the messenger
"Powerful Man of God" 
Raphael who sometimes stirred
a pool
"The Healing of God"
Uriel Who protected John the Baptist 
during Herod's wicked rule
"The Light or Fire of God"
Salaphiel
"The Prayers and Communication of God"
Jegudiel
"The Glory and Praise of God"
Barachiel leader of guardian angels
"The Benediction and Blessing of God"

Thrones, Dominions, Virtues, Principalities
Powers, Archangels posses
Cherubim and Seraphim
are even Angels none the less
