14 Billion Years Ago...

By Polaris

Torn apart
A former shell
I inhale devastation
And exhale creation

Stretched across my conscious mind
Compressed and turning
Existence burning
Within my space life grows anew

Swelling to the surface
A violent explosion
Floating animation
Dancing in gravity's absence

Drifting through darkness
All Engulfing
Gaining momentum
Scanning the horizon

Leaving trails of carbon
In my wake

Hit me like a submarine-fired ICBM to destroy the North Star (HA)! So good to find a kindred spirit since I have a degree in zoology, but never used it much. Cheers to you!

I didn't know the big bang could be so poetic. Check out my 13 Haiku work, one of the haiku is about a black hole you might like it but anyways I'm feeling your science themed poems.

The evolutionary process never had it so good. The thing that leaves me in total awe of the world we live in is the incredible diversity of life and even though 99% of all species are now extinct oh what amazing creatures they must have been. I feel your poem is a tribute to this and I tip my hat knowingly.
