A scatter of cold cases
makes two separate strings.
Rival news hours mime discovery.
*
For so long we've been practicing—
unwrapping our surprise.
*
In heaven the soul is sheltered
from the expanse of time.
It contracts to a point of light
or spreads out "all along" like a wave.
*
The real is what can't escape
