Spiral Galaxy
Looks like a fiery fractal on a background of black, Spiraling out from a light blue sphere center, Full of light, yet also dark. An image of wonder. A fiery fractal composed of stars and planets, yet looks so very foreign. A galaxy, not so unlike our own yet feels rather lonely and forlorn. Why so much darkness...

There’s a ship with the flag raised high, It...
