Saint Michael

    Child in the womb,

    Which way shall I lie
    To fall asleep?

    While Michael Angelo’s Sistine roof,
    His “Morning” and his “Night” disclose
    How sinew that has been pulled tight,
    Or it may be loosened in repose,
    Can rule by supernatural right
    Yet be but sinew.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
