Our Lady
Of everything impossible we strive for vain,
Of dreams that come to us by the window at dusk,
Of the schemes that beguiled us
On the broad terraces of cosmopolitan hotels
To the European sound of music and voices -
far off and near by
That hurt us,
knowing we'll never come anywhere
near them...
Come lull us,
Come soothe us,
Come save us,
Come help us,
Come solemnly,
Come most solemnly full
Come to help our brothers and sisters in the most
terrible situation in the middle east.
Of a secret yearning to weep.
Come over the oceans,
Over the great oceans,
Come pass your hand over the back of the I... beast
Come, ever attending,
Come like a mother to help,
Come silent, ecstatic to help in the night,
Come wrap my heart, while- mantled night...
The moon grows real,
The moon see the horrors,
The moon see the bad thing's we do.
And in us perhaps something start's ...
