Nature
My mind blinks at nature's wonder
Perception of it drives a risky path
Of falling into an epistemic pit
My frangible wits proclaim
A detente with orthodoxy
Requiring exigent reaction
To a fusillade of false hope
Hard facts maledict my conscience
Into an awareness of the inevitable truth of life
That science is not the arbiter of truth
But only a window into the nature of creation
