Serpentine galaxies wriggle in the night,
Stars pulse, a million watching eyes
And the moon is a glowing button, sewn to the sky.

Wide-eyed like they're watching horror stories unfold
Dramatic irony clings to us.
We are the unknowing hosts of trillions of tiny parasites
Making angels out of our atoms
As if they were snowflakes on a landscape
But the real angels tear out their hair
In a stress-filled sky
Trying to scoop us up with their horizon-hands
But failing, only leaving trails
Of golden red behind.
