Density

Bend
light
around
me like a
neutron star pulling
gravitational matter to
playgrounds warp speed causing rotations, generating
electromatic pulsars,
beaming emissions
towards earth
and me
to
view
in
awe;
spellbound,
I stand both
feet fixed in muddy
tidepools, wish on King Solomon's
footprints that I might experience spectacular
love, flashing, expanding in a
restless universe—
quark the
cosmos
blithe
free.
