birth of a black hole

we are two neutron stars

orbiting each other in a fatal dance

two damaged souls attracted by gravity

and when we merge

we'll either simmer

or explode


at times we graze each others paths

our touch a blinding, burning light

with molten claws that rip our flesh to shreds


and with the scraps

we sew

bodies and souls anew

a patchwork quilt of each other

into something neither you or me

but equally us


a new planetary body

that churns and accelerates silently

in the nothingness of the universe
