You Communists and Republicans! <br />all you Germans and Frenchmen! <br />you corpses and quickeners! <br />The stars are about to melt <br />and fall on you in tears. <br /> <br />Get ready! Get ready! <br />you Papists and Protestants! <br />you whores and you virtuous! <br />The moon will be bread <br />and drop presently into your baskets. <br /> <br />Friends and those who despise <br />and detest us! <br />Adventists and those who believe <br />nothing! <br />Get ready for the awakening.<br /><br />William Carlos Williams<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-approaching-hour/
