Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

And Once Upon

and once upon a galaxy
there was this one little quark star
that wanted nothing more
than shoot through vast skies
at the speed of light

so on and on she drew across the heavens
her many arcs of ephemeral wonder
and no one dared to stop her

she danced across the universe
leaving her trail everywhere she went
until she had no more to give
and fizzled out into infinity
