News at Eleven (Back Page): Linda Pastan wrote of Noah

preparing the ark: "He had precise instructions from above" while "God went about his usual business/somewhere else./Who worried about the children still stranded on their failing rooftops; the abandoned animals who didn't/make it to the ark; the way so many deaths seemed an almost incidental/part of the story?/Did anyone give instructions/from above, and when?"

from The Boston Globe: Verse by verse, poets seek meaning amid the ruins
