How they arrived with clarity and force
Lightning strikes on Miller’s farm
and days later
everything is gone
Are you sure it was natural
everyone seemed to ask
or could it have been an arrow
directed by an angry god
Local preachers try to explain
to congregations of none
exactly what didn’t happen
Meanwhile earth moving machines
continually roll in from far away places
april two thousand seventeen
