            The illusiveness if not able 

            To swerve into certainty

            Nevertheless enabled some

            To banish God and delight

            In the green freedom

            Of a cockatoo on a rug

            Pulled from under 

 

            A flat earth and stationary

            Universe.  Is it because the

            Brightest words were 

            Spoken long ago and

            The God of them silenced

            As those prophets died?

            One can still if one wills

 

            Hear the disturbance of echoes.

            Ben in the back yard darkness

            Howled in near-human anguish

            And implored me to lead him

            Back in despite the existence

            Of a doggy-door he might have 

            Used if he'd had the will to.
