And we cast lots


And we cast lots . . .
First Nephi. Chapter Three. Verse 11.

The outcome always matters
but maybe not the method.
The iron rod is sturdy
through fair weather and foul.
But the kind of shoes we wear
or whether we grip overhand
or underhand
with gloves on
or barehanded
is a matter of cleromancy
and not dreams perhaps
the element of chance
is the savor of faith
