In the cosmic night, spectacle of light
Pristine creation
Primal waves coalesce into new life
Pulsing in grand crescendo
New born child of the galaxy
Ruled by deep blue oceans
Moons and mountains are watching the constant motions
Reaching out to the sky
Soaring up ever high
Verdant groves, blooming evergreen
Endless wonders left unseen
Dry wind burning the land to a crisp, the waters rising
Doomed for vile evolution and death, uprising
Famine spreading contagion and disease
Nothing remains but extinction and flames
Fleeting meager lives
Time after time climbing the Kardashev scale
Creator, preserver, destroyer
Forever the cycle repeats
Clandestine calamities
The dust has settled now
And the sky regained its glow
Serene and gentle rest
Whence marvelous life can grow
The ocean’s soft caress
Its breeze is ever strong
The shade of hulking trees
Where do they all belong?
The hues of eventide
Depart these distant shores
The same old ancient dawn
An innocent, pure fawn
Comets fall through the sky
Molten core spewing high
Conflagration, burning all in its path
Ultimate supernovan wrath
Bursting with the force of a thousand suns
Crumbling to nebular dust
Not unlike a mortal soul
Forgotten once it’s burned to coal
Curtain call, for all life must fall
Clandestine calamities
