The church of diggers

Yesterday you named all the letters in
backhoe loader

and later I heard an interview with a filmmaker
about whether there is a God

I still don’t know
whether we vanish
or loop back around
or float somewhere
gauzy and nice

but as I watch you
study the dump trucks
with pious attention
your face is proof at least
of our blunt need
for devotion.
