WHEN ANOTHER MIDNIGHT

When another midnight comes to rest,
On the cheek of our sleeplessness,
All the crusaders will wake and dress,
Pull their flags from their pillowcases..

You could hear all of Eden hold its breath,
On this the anniversary of wonders death,
Unholy occasion what a terrible mess,
Oh it's time for a new dress..

How to live a noble life,
In this the age of insanity,
When every prophet's face is turning white,
Its the look, the look of...
"Can it be?"

Its shock, its horror, its despair!
Its Socrates weeping in a wheelchair
Teacher drooling, unaware
"Where are my students where, oh where?"

Poet to poet, nun to nun ,
Ive met a distance that I have to run
No matter what madness must come undone,
Im throwing down a smoking gun..

All the commuters will hear our words,
And hide in garages like frightened birds but ,
You cant stop the moaning of the Earth,
And the midnight crackling of my nerves!

Come out, come out! Angels of love,
It's just the sound of another midnight falling,
Come out come out..
It's not the end of the world,
It's just the sound of another midnight falling,
Come out come out! The time is now...!

"It's shock, it's horror.

It's despair.

It's Socrates weeping in a wheelchair."

This woman is a true Canadian poet.
