mother mary
make your arms outstretch
above me screaming — save me
from another silent night of fright
good lord, as i suffocate
under bedsheets of the fallen
have mercy on my sleeping soul
when the bomb falls.
take me quickly — let me kiss
my lover at the instant of
eternity — let me die with
the taste of life upon my lips.
