Here, in one succinct sentence from an essay by Charles Simic, is the very essence of what one needs to keep in mind, if one's project is create good poetry:
An archangel is much more interesting in the company of a pig than a saint in prayer.
Think about it. With whom are your imagined angels keeping company?

I love the way Simic thinks.
Yes. I do, too. Some of his poems are just devastating.
