Geology, theology — neither needs apology.
Time is deep, and space is steep.
From fossils come cities.
Geologically, is, isn’t.
The past moves.
Our origins meet below our feet.
It’s twice, it’s thrice we came from ice.
Time, time, time — the DNA of human kind.
The universe is a library, the earth a novel, humans a short story.
In the strata of the earth we find the fingerprint of God.
We live and move and have our being within the lovely Pleistocene.
