In The Void

Observations on the cosmic view and realms of distances

No voice is whispered in the void
Explosions inside the nest of stars
Ignite into the operas of the galaxies 
Noiseless vacancies full of mysteries
Evolve, remain as vacuous as they are

Space, bridled by the fire balls of debris
To be explored once in the field of vision
That seem to come from nothing
Gone nova moving forward over eons
That follow in the open cosmic sea 

Alternate universes yet to be observed
The ones with six dimensions or more
Vacuums pouring out pure particles
Emptying into something still to be determined
Into the unknown as wide as real as motion

To be defined, farther out in space
Farther than the mind can comprehend 
Sounds that can't be embraced or heard 
Out there, distances between the planets
Is enormous, before and after they are gone
So long measured in the calm before the storm

Reality is not mentioned here or there
Since there is no reference point to find

Too close for comfort as worlds collide
We resolve to change existence while in orbit
Bridged by alternate universes where planets rise
Stars go nova all the time
Elastic in an ocean of provocateurs 

In the minus hours of creation
Jagged stones became much smoother
Edges compress in their rotations on
Filled in with shape and form
Earth was born in orbit

Weather forces wear down rocks
One size fits the planet well in gravity
Profound and rounded in ways too hard
To understand or simplify in cosmic terms
Conditions to strange to fathom circumstances
Or describe as fiction from long distances

More ovals on the horizon grow
Escape velocity stretched to the limits
On the elliptic mist where history lives

Rocks expand into the planets heavens
This all happens in split seconds over time
To fall all together from the sky to where we are

In every instant that can be conjectured on 
Thought, as reality unfolds back on itself
Where it all began in silent matter conjured up
In the void, there is no noise 
Space listens to questions postulated
Over distances filled in by vacancies

and with this poem makes me travel to cosmic space and again physics next to math is my not so favorite thing but then i always get engrossed in stuff that creates something about these two not so favorite it is what i call fascination for learning something new and thanks for that

Hi sette, Thank you so much for your thoughts on this subject. Moments ago I changed the last 3 lines of this poem. I'm glad you got something out of this. Have a great day. Earl
