First Light Machine

Flashed
Through a crinkle
A sudden moment
Of sublime.

Thrashed
From our vision
Into a thought
Paradigm.

Crashed
Into exit
Onto altered
Shadow time.

The loose in a cluster
The spray of its dust
The stream in its filament
Gives way –
To lights lust.

Lightweight ejections
Bounce down, and about
Embracing their rejection
Of a dark matter, route.

Flow rate detections
Of a near, away doubt
Demands a correction
From a darkness, blackout.

The eye of the master
That hides in the night
Is powered by thoughts
That follow its sight.

The knowns that comes faster
Through a strengthening might
Is sought by the challenge
Of the dark, to be light.

Reaching back in time
Seeking an equation
Searching secret signals
In sector dark –
Annihilation.

Far across a background
Playing seek and hide
A world peeks for a moment
Then sneaks backwards –
To its stride.

The blink of a sound
From a signal spike knife
Invokes machinations
On the origins –
Of life.

I watch
For a signal
I search
For a sign
I listen
For that moment
When my soul learns
To shine.

The negative, of night
An inverse, effect
A quantum, correlation
Of a shadow-like, silhouette.

The tail of the snake
Shakes
In the cold dust of history
It makes
A signature shine
Stirring, awake
Signaling a fractured
Moment –
That breaks.
