lost
but not lost
resting in a crack of time-
a speck in the cosmos,
forgotten for a while
flowing wraithlike, then stretched
from thin to nothing...
black holes
crowd the universe's core
like so many hungry mouths
eager to suck within
eager to render form to formless
eager to render thin to nothing…fade to black:
the last star
swirls slowly
down the drain
of time;
emerging
on another side
like an astral butterfly
from its cocoon,
its chrysalis of blackness,
into a universe beyond
