Truthout is a vital news source and a living history of political struggle. If you think our work is valuable, support us with a donation of any size.
We claim that an infinity
Can come from one
That nothing is more virtual
Than empty space
That Nature’s laws
Leave wiggle room and
That the vast majority
Of the perceptible is
Dark
Perhaps
In knowing more
About what brought us
Here
And what will bring us
Hence
The further fact that
Neither mass nor energy
Can ever be destroyed
Would help explain
The fate of hope within
This gravity of endless blood
