Paper Angels

Written and Recorded by Anne tammel


Did you have wings?
Each limb reaching toward an open

sky, over New York. Spinning,
toppling. angelic, blackening

papers drift among you--
those snowflakes of September

scattered from open windows.
Could they have been the wings

of those who won’t emerge,
releasing them to an expanse

we will not touch?
We will not know.

And will we ever
gather all of those papers?

You drift along-
side them, suspended,

momentarily—inhumanly
free, and only

for this split-second moment.
Will we ever know

what they were?
How many?

The question that fills each of
us as you topple through this odd

black morning: Who
are you? Why you choose

to lead this pattern
of papers that dances

into the sky-turned-
smoke—Icarian angels

rejecting despair, floating
high above us

on euphoric wings,
brave. Immortal,

lost…and

yet

somehow

momentarily
​
lofty…
