In this distant place
High and remote
Beyond the planet's pull
Gone for good and all
Hanging nowhere

Spacial, spacious solitude
Sounds appropriate
Cast unto shadows
Deeply unmoving
Deeply unnerving
Inertia

But within this
Atoms collide and spin
And soundless explosions
Cause panic-breaths
And splintered heartbeats

And in this distant place
Nothing happens
Nothing moves
But within...........
