Sarah White<\/h1>\n

The Vanishing<\/span><\/h2>\n

Weep for the tiny nematodes, diatoms, corals, and crustaceans lost though
\nwe don\u2019t know most of their names yet, let alone how we\u2019ll get along
\nwithout them now that they\u2019ve passed into extinction leaving
\nhomo sapiens, the knowing man, alone with his brain
\nfinding light waves from fourteen billion years ago
\nand discovering nobody in the cosmos close
\nenough to mourn when we ourselves
\npass forever into the shadows
\nas we\u2019re bound, in time,
\nto do, given what we
\nknow about the
\nheat, cold,
\nand harm
\nto come.<\/p>\n
