Old Stars

Old stars decay to searing white fires

That feel each other’s fall

Filling every new void

With energy everlasting


The heart of a star

Moves with gentle violence

A force that can do no other

But burn and build

Constructing new suns and supernovae exploding into

Bits and dust, clouds and comets and planets

Forming civilizations that do not understand

Life without delicacy is just war
