I looked out the window
Of my mind's eye
And beheld a sinking universe
In a thousand gleaming hues;
‘Twas so many beads of light
Heaving into a swirling blackness.
The ship has lost its rudder,
The pilot has jumped overboard,
An abdication of his throne.
Sharks prowl the wine dark waters
Around the event horizon,
Where naught but shadows lie.
