DANIEL EDWARD MOORE
I ponder faith infrequently.
But when I do, that doesn’t mean
some miracle made from yesterday’s trauma
is easier to believe.
If mirrors are at the right angle,
if tulips have been crushed like doubt
between pages in the gospel of Thomas,
then call me a lover of wrought iron flowers
because never has tragedy bloomed like this
in Rust’s cold stories of rain.
