Mother Earth
orbits the Sun
pregnant with the seed of life.
Papa Moon glows
rocking the vast oceans
flexing his muscles
at the growing
galaxy
he has considered
since the ancient of days
in this vast playpen growing, multi-hued and
littered with the debris of self absorbed toddlers.
Time passes filling the void
pressing against the outer limits
stretching, kicking, gurgling and cooing
Until...Uncle-- Papa cries, finally
shaking his head
fixed on a yellow star
as it transforms into a red dwarf and explodes
ripping a black hole
into the silk wall
silhouetting space time
inhaling all, including Mama and her afterbirth
extruding still, new dimensions
on an infinite cycle
alive with possibility.
