when faced
with the unexplainable
such as
say
an unblinking ocular exception
or
a downfall of blood
science is shelved
for a case
of the old fashioned
religious zealotry
with good reason
it becomes difficult
to convey
the impact
of suddenly discovering
everything
you thought you knew
was miniscule
in the face of eternity
but honestly
that is the least of their worries
