Lies a supermassive black hole.
Let’s beware of this I dole..!)
For it has a power unlimited
With all forces acting overloaded
Gravity and nuclear strong or weak
Electromagnetic induction at bleak
None knows if there is ever
A specific other force forever
What role it has to perform
None can tell if it has any form (50)
Thus we entered a new Golden Age
Of space exploration- an all new phase
With irrepressible enthusiasm and
A deep understanding just grand
Of the cutting-edge research so
In space travel – my favourite lo!
All World-renowned physicists
And fantabulous futurists
Presented a compelling vision of how
Humanity developed in. Wow! (60)
A sustainable civilization in outer space.
Revealing the developments in great pace
In robotics, nanotechnology,
And beneficial biotechnology
That allowed us to terraform
On potentially habitable landform
In the different systems of stars
And build liveable cities on Mars
And of course beyond.
What an idea just grand! (70)

Lord, Terraform My Art!
Who terraforms thoughts I love best,
In vacuumed orbit that man sees,
I'm comet stripped down to the bone
Scant issue to reflect, divest,
That sun might warm or fool call own,
What solar winds want to imbue
Grace (gravity alone decrees)
Is more than what I'm worth or due.
These huddled stones (I think this fair),
Are mine alone to offer life,
To claim or bastardize at will
Their clothing I alone prepare,
Their blood is mine to save or spill,
But lend an ear if you will Sir,
Though no man's sure of home or wife,
A rhyme can soothe philosopher.

My soul hungers
It searches for satiation
Constantly craving convergence
Thirsting to thrive
My soul, the devourer of dimensions
Digesting the universe and filling the vacuum
An unrelenting engulfment of the unknown
Feeding on novas of knowledge
My soul creates
Tendrils trace out to terraform
Gestating galaxies
Shaping spatial surroundings
My soul, the cartographer of the cosmos
Sailing the solar winds
Navigating the nocturnal nebulas
Venturing through the void
My soul needs nourishment
My soul yearns for yours
