In Thee Event

in thee event 
the gothic garlgores 
shall fly away
from their ledges  
chasing the doves 
deep within the hedges 
startling bearded crows 
ice skating over lake michigan 
gazing back 
at lake shore drive
in the event 
the roaring stone lions 
guarding dusable entrance way
shall leave their throne becoming docile 
purring at my feet as fountains flow
of fresh running tears 
from the garden of forever 
everyone will know
in the event 
connecting canals valleys with tunnels
throughout sleeping boroughs
gathering within the palm of my hand 
in thee event
across the ocean upon white sand
i shall perch weeping
in that final hour bidding farewell
divinely we shall all sup 
from the very same cup
