Song of the Nephilim


from the ABC set

Let's say that this is written
in Enoch's alphabet,
perhaps the one
said Enoch used -
although apocryphally.

Assume that your transcription
is right, in large degree -
at least so far
as we can tell -
thou clever Master Dee.

Suppose that blood-carved letters are
demons inside geometry
and meaning hides
from itself and
credibility.

Let's wish that fallen angels are
still dancing widdershins
round time and space
until the end
of twice infinity.

twice infinity is infinity? but then again I don't know what nephilim is, but I will look it up, I'm assuming it's a branch of angels?
