And when the time has come to rouse the dead,
you will not see Gabriel clipping an alto
around his numinous neck.
An angel playing the world’s last song
on a glistening saxophone might be enough
to lift them back into the light of earth,
but really no further.-----
From Invention of the Saxophone by Billy Collins.https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/148012/the-invention-of-the-saxophone
