First Light Machine

A degradation signal
In a timescale shaking wave
Breaks its solar dominion
To cheat –
Its telemetry grave.

Voyager 1 >>

 

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 >>

 

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

NGC 3572 >>

 

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.

NGC 281 >>

 

Measured, gross emissions
Combined,
By brute force

Detracts, from a vision
Of a designed,
Streamed source.

SOFIA >>

 

Elongated, motions
Of irradiating, waves
Rebalances, our notions
Of how structuring –
Behaves.

R 136 >>

 

Digitized, commotion
Lies sculpted, in fields

Reflecting white,
Dark energies
Of densely complex –
Shields.

IC 1871 >>

 

The drag, of magnetic
Stretched outwardly, in
Displays –
Its faint sharpness
From daybreaks,
Begin.

NEOWISE >>
