LIGHTNING CRASHES 

WRITER ED KOLWALCZYK



lightning crashes, a new mother cries 

her placenta falls to the floor 

the angel opens her eyes 

the confusion sets in 

before the doctor can even close the door

.lightning crashes, an old mother dies 

her intentions fall to the floor 

the angel closes her eyes 

the confusion that was hers 

belongs now, to the baby down the hall

.oh now feel it comin' back again 

like a rollin' thunder chasing the wind 

forces pullin' from the center of the earth again

I can feel it.

.lightning crashes, a new mother cries 

this moment she's been waiting for 

the angel opens her eyes 

pale blue colored iris, 

presents the circle 

and puts the glory out to hide, hide
