The last stars
Will die out
~120 trillion years
From now
Followed by
10^106 years of
Only black holes
Condensed
That’s like the
Universe beginning
With one second of stars
And then a
Billion billion
Billion billion
Billion billion
Billion years
Of nothing but
Black holes
Stars are the
Immediate after effects
Of the Big Bang
A one second sizzle
Of brightness
Before settling into
An endless era
of darkness
We live
in that one
Bright second
