The Space Between Stars
The space between stars is not empty.
The plane of existence is not a desolate void,
and not a place that is devoid
of substance that was long ago destroyed.
The space between stars is not just filled with dark energy
that we never see stretching and pulling a galaxy
across time and space with cosmic lethargy,
taking light years and light centuries in extraterrestrial reverie.
The space between stars is not merely gas and dust
in clouds of galactic cirrus
accelerating in a universe
cold, dark, dank and averse.
The space between stars is filled with thoughts
and dreams of all those who came before,
all sentient beings from heretofore
and the memories of all whom we adore.
