distraught parents
don’t know what to do
their children
have fallen in love
with dust storms
they reach for a bible story
god
is coming soon
come in out of the grit
the kids are otherwise enthralled
they aren’t waiting for that late god
instead they start a faith
borne up by watching the wind
bore holes in rock
for their parents’ faith
has bred in them the need
for something to judge
Dark Matter
