Do you see the
The Face
The Place
Where the oldest of dreams
Comes True?

Do you see
The Motion
The Energy ?
Where the beauty of newness
Is true.

False color Chandra
An explosion of breath
A bright shining image
Of a white dwarf’s quick death.

A filiment specticle
Of transcedent regret
A particle ejectica
For the Supernova to set.

Spacious light rings
Abound
Suffering in the void
Of emptiness of reason.

Timeless beauty reigns
Superior
Imagining its first
Rendezvous with destiny.

N equals the rate
Of formation by chance
R the number of planets
That just arrive by happenstance.

A fractional planet weight
Slowly gathering in its pace
Develops detectable new signal
In the deep of Drake’s space.

Dust devils dancing
On the field of despair
Awaiting direction
From a God of Nowhere.

A devils short dance
In a distant grey glance
Awaiting detection
Of a red mars romance.

The fountain of space
Focuses
Our attention
Our integrity
Our senses
To the magical realities
Of incandescent nature.

Shades of time
Clarify
Our ignorance
Our diversions
Our intolerance
To the magical demands
Of natures signature.
