The Architecture of Afterglow
CC BYThe silence of the void is not a lack of sound,
but a symphony vibrating too deep for ears to find—
a resonance of hydrogen and high-velocity ghosts
drifting through the corridors of a billion-year mind.
In the cradle of the Pillars, where the dust is thick as wine,
the pressure builds in pockets of emerald and rose;
gravity, the patient sculptor, kneads the dark
until a spark ignites, and a new solar system glows.
