Gods Eye Nebula

Marbles rolling among gasses. through the black passes; dynamic wormhole universal flight; etheric ghosts ride to the light. Soul in a dream state, spectre awaiting checkmate. Fall into the lion’s mouth, slide on down south. Animals to guide you through, abyss of many colored hues; revealed secrets hiding deep, within recesses, up they creep. Deep within the glass revealed, answers await a calling peal. Lighting candles pierce the black; revealing secrets in greenbacks. When bells are tolled, all’s said and done, beneath an orange and mocking sun; truths no longer hidden lie; within all-seeing, glassy eye.

Been away and just saw this. What a beautiful spin on the NGC 7293, the Helix. Some have called it the "Eye of Sauron." All in the eye of the beholder. Yin and Yang of the universe. Well done, M.L.
