Did I see you standing there - eyes wide like the

Inside of a spiraling galaxy,

Spinning out of control into a galactic dance;

Totality at its most impressive in the expanse,

Reaching out through the falling stars to

Appease my better nature with your smile.

Can't you see that I am not the

Tantalizing prize you think you desire? Within my

Iris is the end of all things, an infinite darkness that swallows all light

Only spared by brief novel novas in the twilight.

No, let this moment be a simple diversion in time and then be on your way.
