From all the Jails the Boys and Girls


From all the Jails the Boys and Girls
Ecstatically leap—
Beloved only Afternoon
That Prison doesn’t keep
They storm the Earth and stun the Air,
A Mob of solid Bliss—
Alas—that Frowns should lie in wait
For such a Foe as this—

The Boys and Girls Ecstatically
Leap from all the Jails —
They love only Afternoon
That doesn’t keep Prison
They storm the Earth and stun the Air,
A Blissful Mob—
Alas—that Frowns should be waiting
For such an enemy as this—
