Ambulance At Night Poem by Douglas Gibson

Ambulance At Night



After the ambulance that shakes
The urgent bell that comes and goes
Along the street, the silence wakes
within my heart a million woes.

Outside the silence of my room
I hear the whimper of a leaf
Expanding to the enormous doom
And the whole world engulfed in grief.

The distant dragging of a train
Is a sharp spear within my side;
To-night I carry all the pain
Of mankind once more crucified.
