Chamber 3: The Nautilus on the Inevitable End

There is something in our
anxious desperation
greater than and equal to
the scrambling of the rabbit from the dogs
to dig for an excuse;
the rabbit's way of life is
seeking reasons for the death
the age that qualifies her
the conditions that she met
associated with that gaping hole.
Avoidance means escape.
But youth-
And innocents,
with all the questions
cannot, for some reason, be
entrusted to the Sovereign
who gives,
to take away for His just mysteries,
Lest we too should feel
exposure of delusion
She dies.  And we think rightly so.
