Darwin In Eternity

Darwin was a creationist
with parents who insisted on daily ritual
and regular church attendance
He hid his fondness for dinosaurs
buried the evidence
in the pages of his father's
pornography stash
laid to rest in
the sofa in the garage
by the refrigerator
and the car powered by
the legacy of the long
dead and gone
leviathans
Awakened thoughts of death
then despair all finally gave way
to the resolution that at face value
he had to accept eternal life
there was never going to be death
and he would never die
his departure from this earth
would be the cause of
too much trauma
not for his sake
but for the well-being
of all that existed
the only one
who
could tolerate this drama
his science
class acquaintance
yet even Nick
mentioned he found no mention
of Darwin in the history book
that explained Ancient Athens
the Renaissance
the Enlightenment
and even Tobruk
