First Light Machine

Roar & shake –
Fires in the air
Angry clouds so deep

Meek, in its perilous path
Keeping course –
In the valley of unique.

The perilous path given –
In colored rivers of sky
Broken cliffs and springing streaks

Onto the bleached, sprayed relief
Where raging visions –
Peak.

Pillars of Creation >>

 

Crossing our constants
And the transforming
Of sky

Whispers its wisdom –
As a solution
To why.

The Seduction of Leda >>

 

Falling in –
Spinning
Spiraling in trails of wonder

Felled, into my inner deep blackness
Measured in years of light
And in streams of conscious awakening

I’m pulled through time
An inescapable reality
Into a now –
Of ever present
Meaning.

1054 >>

 

A thread of heavens woven cloth
Enraptured with its might
A misty red and soggy froth
Captures – it’s true fight.

Spread and splashed with flowing haste
Throughout its mystic night
It asks for nothing from its host
To brave – its present plight.

Bok Globule >>

 

Seas of red
Tides of change
Embeds its power
Through control –
Of range.

NGC 6914 >>

 

Telescopic skyscapes
Flashing –
With rage

Define broken time shapes
Crashing –
Our stage.

Northern Cross >>

 

IDL TIFF file

Screams of nature
Howling with rage
Shaking in anger
In a teeming –
Rampage.

V838 >>

 

Squaring, daring
A steely staring
Equally fairing,
Through their time locked –
Pairing.

NGC 6188 >>

 

Breathing in –
Inhaling wonder
Swallowed rapture
Devouring the natal molecules
Of our whimsical –
Now.

NGC 3572 >>

 

Structured bright secrets
Come calling,
From histories echos –

Glimpsed, in an instant
Asking the unknowable,
Wishing –
To whisper
Its truth.
