Probability

It keeps happening again,
A rock falls on a moving train,
Cigarette put out,
By a drop of rain,
Chocolate smudged on a coffee stain,

A flag, over an
Avalanche, fluttering,
A vase, after an air raid,
Glistening.

One cloud in the sky
Blotting out the sun,
One hunch breaking
128 bit encryption,

A lone palm tree spared
By the tsunami,
A baby floating from
Cuba to Miami,

One exception for a rule’s demise
Maybe, God does play dice.
