Good-Bye Multiverse 9
Sub quarks became emergent in the wondering deep
The great nothing was gracious enough to form in the beginning
Space time filled up with blinking sub atomic lights
Flowing in and out of reality with eyes on the eternal flux
Cosmic voids can lose our trust in such realities
But how can something come from nothing?
How does nothingness produce something?
Something had to be there before a bang
A Big Bang needs something there to bang against
Precursor particles arrived with atomic values
Perceivable only when observable in eternal night
Formed from the nothing into something
Designated objects evolved electric
Gravity measured every weight
Of that which makes up the void
Of forces to be avoided after dark
Once upon a time, well within the cosmic reaches
Deeply embedded, near by existed, Multiverse Nine
Escaping with some light and dust as it evaporated
Imploded, exploded, concluded everywhere
Some elements shifted into our here from there
Red embers faded as their worlds and suns died out
Our neighbors are less remembered now
Gathered up and swallowed up by space and time
We never really knew them but we wish them well
Almighty God, bless all the humanoids lost in space
In body, in mind, in time, from Multiverse Nine
Thank you for your decree that we believe
In the visible and invisible in all realities
Take our neighbor’s souls to a better place
One that comes with running water and a human race
A place where planets live in peace in space and time
And warranties don’t run out when the universe expires
Termination on the ephemeral tide is common
For those who had eyes to see
They never saw it coming
An entire universe departed into the depths of space
Into the vacuous void as a mistake
Thank you for giving us strange particles
Exotic and confusing as they might be
We don’t know what to do with them
Good-Bye Multiverse Nine
Thanks for stopping by
