DARK MATTER

when the sun starts to set on a radiant mind

being drawn toward the shadows

an involuntary response

 

as is clinging to life

amidst the hunger of a universe

 

where systems of light

collapse and decay

 

energy transferred

pulsing ,throbbing

spinning unstable

stretching ,straining

until

yielding docile

impulses drained

 

destined for places

unseen and unknown

before finally fading away
