Cosmic Compressions Poem by Andy Brookes

only in darkness find light, an emptiness so full its bursting,
encircling spectral voids, truth's shivering in frozen space.

electrons unseen whizz, dying minuscule falling bodies,
hit by too may bullets, explode in tiny sparks of evolution.

in that nothing lies everything, seen and unseen,
tiny abstract worlds like non we know, inter-dimensional leap frog.

light bending around blankness, bright suns illumination lost;
we poor travellers looking for enlightenment finding only critical mass

seeking dark spaces for it is there the light is hidden
an ever grinding black hole so full it bursting with hidden light.

pulverised talcum powder thoughts to gain a dusting of knowledge
so look for the light in the dark.
