Motion

Forever in motion, though stillness it seeks

always indifferent, but emotion it bleeds

 

A final cut through the shield, through the shell, through the skin

Time comes to a halt, and thus forever begins

 

Galaxies burst open, while stars tear apart,

while moons split and crumble, still Earth plays its part

 

From the wound, dripping comet trails and meteor streaks

scattering pieces of eternity's being
