Edward S Gault


A Crack in the Day


What would happen, 

I wonder,

If one could

Take a hammer and a chisel,

        And put a crack in the day.

        Just like that.

What would happen?

          Would it bleed?

          Would there be storms-

                               Birds falling from the air.

           Would any of us have a prayer?

Or would anyone even care?
