    Fiery the Angels rose, & as they rose deep thunder roll'd
    Around their shores: indignant burning with the fires of Orc
    And Bostons Angel cried aloud as they flew thro' the dark night.
    He cried: Why trembles honesty and like a murderer,
    Why seeks he refuge from the frowns of his immortal station!
    Must the generous tremble & leave his joy, to the idle: to the pestilence!
    That mock him? who commanded this? what God? what Angel!
    To keep the gen'rous from experience till the ungenerous
    Are unrestraind performers of the energies of nature;
    Till pity is become a trade, and generosity a science,
    That men get rich by, & the sandy desart is giv'n to the strong
    What God is he, writes laws of peace, & clothes him in a tempest
    What pitying Angel lusts for tears, and fans himself with sighs
    What crawling villain preaches abstinence & wraps himself
    In fat of lambs? no more I follow, no more obedience pay.
    In the end they will lay their freedom at our feet and say to us, 'Make us your slaves, but feed us.'

    We held hands on the last night on earth.
    Our mouths filled with dust, we kissed in the fields and under trees,
    screaming like dogs, bleeding dark into the leaves.

    It was empty on the edge of town but we knew everyone floated
    along the bottom of the river.
    So we walked through the waste where the road curved into the sea
    and the shattered seasons lay,
    and the bitter smell of burning was on you like a disease.
    In our cancer of passion you said, "Death is a midnight runner."
    The sky had come crashing down like the news of an intimate suicide.
    We picked up the shards and formed them into shapes
    of stars that wore like an antique wedding dress.
    The echoes of the past broke the hearts of the unborn
    as the ferris wheel silently slowed to a stop.
    The few insects skittered away in hopes of a better pastime.
    I kissed you at the apex of the maelstrom and asked
    if you would accompany me in a quick fall,
    but you made me realize that my ticket wasn't good for two.
    I rode alone.

    You said, "The cinders are falling like snow."
    There is poetry in despair, and we sang with unrivaled beauty,
    bitter elegies of savagery and eloquence.
    Of blue and grey.
    Strange, we ran down desperate streets and carved our names in the flesh of the city.
    The sun was stagnated somewhere beyond the rim of the horizon
    and the darkness is a mystery of curves and lines.
    Still, we lay under the emptiness and drifted slowly outward,
    and somewhere in the wilderness we found salvation scratched
    into the earth like a message.

    Also, +1 if someone can name the poem I posted and the poet.

    Don't remember the title. I think it was written by William Blake.
