Rise of the Eloquent Ecliptic

Eloquent design turned sideways fast On dark matters rise to the cosmic dawn lost Leads to a plane point invisible along its orbit A path shattered by a blast from futures light Coplanar lines remain the same With weight, particles escape, into oblivion beyond all doubt Bubbled up from foreign origins, they explode into the calm The ones left over from other universes emerge on altered states Lift the ecliptic declining into nothing as circles die Beyond that, by definition, light carries on with beams delightful Changing properties by quark conversion Along the vast divide celestial spheres appear The basis for the ecliptic coordinated system Planets move with indifference about the void On other worlds time goes by then slides into the darkness Not to be surprised at finding clues under the silent moon Just setting with the cryptic sun below the downed horizon
