The contrast of good and evil. Angels versus demons.

An angel appears radiant
A sublime presence indeed
Serene and tranquil yet lithe
A murmur
A lullaby so sweet.

A demon appears, grotesque
A cataclysmic presence I fear
Rancid, repugnant and repulsive
Yet unctuous
The cacophony I cannot bear

Aristrotel called it fate
Heaven and hell contend
Visceral and obstreperous
Yet grandiose
A celestial triumph I commend.
