“evermore” is one of two edgy & profound poems by Lonnie Monka in our Fall 2016 issue.

PRAYING FOR LIGHT
while pooping in the dark outside
a car approaches
people often anger
in an inverse proportion to their true faith
& faith can’t help
but support absolutely everything
just as G-d’s footprint must be too big to see
realists don’t think
they are just sub-conscious statisticians
trying to be helpful
so what is eternity without thinking beings
forever trying to understand
the end of time
the bottom of the sea
no toilet paper?
