1. AMONGST STELLAR REMNANTS

Here at the end of creation
Stars long cold, dead remnants
Such grandeur in emptiness
Such splendour in darkness

Photons die and light fades
Corpses of worlds decay
Black holes evaporate
Energy dissipates

Expanding without end
Majestic nothingness
Entirely meaningless
Cold spacetime and heat death

Ancient galaxies dying, vanishing
Light gone, perfect night
All gone, all that’s left is time
Time and space
And emptiness
And hopelessness
And nothingness
