Apep
...curse forevermore
The dark, slithering Apep,
A serpent of ancient lore.
His venomous hiss is kept,
As his curse forevermore.
His coils like fiery chains,
Constrict the sun from the sky.
A force to make gods wane,
And mortals shudder and sigh.
But even in his dark might,
Apep fears the mother's rage.
Her light pierces through the night,
And banishes him to his cage.
So beware, ye who dare
To summon the serpent king.
For his wrath is beyond compare,
And his rule will forever sting.

Death is a black hole. Think about it. A black hole is the corpse of a star, something once warm and bright, now come to the end of its life cycle. But some will argue that the cycle of life does not end with death. That death is merely another path we must walk once our bodies expire and our souls ascend. In that moment, when the fuel in the starβs chemical tank hits empty and the shiny matte coat explodes into supernova, the mass left behind β the corpse β becomes a black hole. We understand that, around such a vast cadaver, dimensions work a little differently in death to the way weβre used to in life. For example, light cannot escape the pull of a black hole when it hits the point of no return. Thatβs where it gets its colour. Space itself is contorted by a black hole. Thatβs where it gets its funny shape. Even time. Time slows right down the closer you get to it. The closer you get to a black hole. The closer you get to death.
