First Light Machine

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 >>

 

Black, inside out
White, outside in
Motion, into nothing
Is the question –
From within.

Seven Sisters >>

 

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.

Carina >>

 

Marked into dark
Its path, by a spark
We embark,
On a faithfully led –
Arc.

Molecular Cloud >>

 

Outbursts of brightness
Inwardly, seen
Processed and increased
Into a strong –
Flowing seam.

Comet Leonard >>

 

I must look up into the breach again,
To the wondrous sight in the sky,
And ask that I do understand
Of a star, that now wonders its why.
And the breath of color that sing’s its song
The lengths of its light shaking,
Through the shaded mist of history’s face,
The present, of its dawn, breaking.

Hidden Infant >>

 

Seething stars through bloodshot eyes
In silent scenes of death
Races, violently, burning
For a never want of rest

Gaming, future, systems
Like a treasure found for me
I realize that returning
Is a spot I cannot see

I mention, saying, never, known
In a heart that doesn’t exist
As destiny leans on through
And puts its end to this.
