First Light Machine

I’m 1,000 years old –
I look back, to see forward
To see the full emptiness
To see the black whole
As a witness, to the fractional sections
Of an everything, from its nothing.

Barnard 33 >>

 

Super series radios
Signal –
Their speed

Refracting their flows
Of density –
Bleed.

We motion our intentions
We marshal through our minds
We take inferred abstentions
From the things –
We fear to find.

Uzboi Vallis >>

 

Vibrantly, variable
Violently, vast
Visually, vacant
Is the present –
As past.

Creatures of thought
Through infrared sight

Are troubled
And fraught
And burned, through their bright.

Ejections, of motion
As inflections, of might
Disconnects –
Their intersections
As a reflection –
Of light.

Raging through the darkness
Through the swaths
Of sharp ringshine

The mind re-blends its starkness
And adopts –
Its pure divine.

A dreamer views –
An endless universe of possibility
Full of mystery and marvel
With pinpoints of opportunity
Dashing by
Dancing, just out of reach
Staring back
At the starlight
Inside of us.

Like a storm cloud –
On the darkest, day of a days
A shuttering thunder, from deep away
A sharp eruption, from dull decay
A quickening crack, to full astray

Then explosion –
From an anger,
On full display.
