04 / Cosmic Collapse
Into Void
Frozen light collapses to void All known paths curve into void Signal thins and dies in void Scale erases form to void Motion drains its will to void Memory unthreads to void Star ash drifts into dark Distances stretch into dark Frames dissolve back to dark Heat abandons mass to dark Orbits fail, they fall to dark Names decay, unheard, in dark Frozen light collapses to void All known paths curve into void Signal thins and dies in void Scale erases form to void Motion drains its will to void Memory unthreads to void Fields collide under force Gravity writes law as force All motion bows to force Structure breaks by force Time folds inward now Constants freeze solid now No return possible now Only scale remains now Worlds grind down to ash Bright cores burn into ash Oceans boil into ash History settles as ash Pressure fractures into shock White collapse arrives as shock Time recoils under shock Aftermath hangs in shock Blinding cores tear into light Overexposed skies drown in light Edges burn away in light Nothing hides from light Distances thin into void Signal breaks and falls to void Frames unravel back to void Meaning drains into void Fields converge then collide Orbits cross and collide Mass and chance collide All directions collide Pressure shears into burst Horizons fracture in burst Residual heat becomes hollow Aftermath hangs in burst Depths widen into hollow Frameworks thin into hollow Trajectories bend toward impact All structure sinks to hollow Masses meet as impact Paths converge through impact Continuity splits into rift Momentum peaks in impact Margins tear into rift Boundaries fail within rift Echoes recoil toward burst All distance opens in rift Shadows tally breath as death Measures fail to halt death Final signals thin to death Motion forfeits will to death Memory loosens grip to death All accounts settle as death Distances erase shape to void Frameworks unravel back to void Causation slackens into void Anchors loosen fall to void Reference dissolves toward void Everything waits within void Tidal scars carve the moon Ash shadows cross the moon Silent dust veils the moon Old orbits bind the moon Cracked plates drift on earth Oceans pull breath from earth History sinks into earth Ruins sleep beneath earth Fusion pressure feeds the sun Gravitic storms twist the sun Radiant noise scars the sun Time burns thin in the sun Spiral arms erase the galaxy Cold halos frame the galaxy Light thins across the galaxy All scale dissolves in the galaxy Light drains through space to dark Light bends through frames to dark Light fades through fields to dark Light leaks past bounds to dark Light slips past form to dark Light thins through time to dark Life forms through chance to void Life grows through flaws to void Life spreads through cells to void Life learns through signs to void Life builds short sense to void Life ends in ash to voidBack to Consumed by a Funeral Star
