Thank you so much for the prompt! I really enjoyed it. I like the simple nature of the Word doc; it helps keep the focus on, well, the words!
I'm so excited for the first Maker Monday!!!
OK, here's what I've got as of now:
the stars hold secrets, unknown to fauna or flora
declaring a brilliant blast of incandescent spectra
burning with fusion, two atoms pressed into one
yielding noble helium from flaming hydrogen
the stars maintain this delicate act
gravity pulling in, energy pushing back
a limited lifespan, til eventual explosion
from this destruction, all of creation
a compressed future, they spit out a script
even fish don't know they know it; are we any different?
does the script define us, or do we get a say?
it seems both are true, in some strange way
our sharpest tools fail to find
a true base layer of the kind
that would illuminate and explain
make the whole universe simple and plain
no, this clearly can't be done
being lost is much more fun
thank you, stars, for bridging the gap
from biggest bangs to apes drawing maps
we continue your dance of unknown knowing
swaying to the endless pulsing and glowing
