Notes About The Poem

Going Out With a Bang

Going out with a bang 

       Dancing in circles weighing each other down 
       Listless yet buoyant, in our oversized gowns 
       Space waltzes are draining, swirling all night 
       By morning we’d merged, in supernova light

A real blast, light-years away, the kind of event that produces as much as half of the universe’s gold, platinum, uranium and mercury, experts say. Exhausting and yet worth the weight in gold! A perfect romantic Bitesize

Yes indeed Anaya, all the rare heavy elements are produced in supernovae explosions, what a universe we live in, one big self serving science lab, or is some entity running a colossal experiment! Beats me! cheers David

A grandiose celestial event. Dancing in fevered anticipation through the night until two bodies were joined as one. Awesomely captured by Earthly voyeurs.

Heya Lin, Party’s, they don’t get much bigger on a cosmic scale, and they certainly do it with style, way to go, cheers David
