Before we enter
knowing
we are always
spinning
there’s an astronomy in us all
that speaks more of space
than light
and we are spun through in-betweens
until caught in the gravity
of that
single
question
that black hole
at galaxy’s centre
that mystery
so heavy
and pivotal
everything
revolves around it
– everything –
and the closer we get to this
ultimate horizon
(this final event)
the more we are bathed in answers
illuminations
that stretch us
beyond
our capacity to comprehend
until finally
we enter into
the ultimate
infinite
intimate
embrace
