BIG BANG DIDN’T SQUEEZE OUT ALL THAT INFINITE STARDUST JUST TO WATCH
YOU SMOTHER YOUR HYDROGEN SMIRK IN THE ABYSMAL BOSOM OF THIS
SUPERMASSIVE BLACK HOLE — LET NOT THE LEAKY LETHE
SWALLOW PASSIVELY WHOLE YOUR TACITLY CADILLAC
SOUL (HELL NO) KISS ME WITH THAT ORBITAL DECAY;
I’D RATHER GO OUT SWINGING/BURNT/DISMAYED,
CRASHED INTO PLANETS STILL UNNAMED THAN
KNEEL DISPLAYED AMID SPEECHLESS GRACE!
SO NO ONE CAN HEAR YOU SCREAM
IN SPACE? GIRL WE’RE WRITHING,
WRETCHED THIGHS MELTING
BETWEEN ARSENIC AND
OLD LACE, MAKING
NOISE AGAINST
COLD DEMISE,
STILL ALIVE,
& DEFYING
EMBRACE.
