Of which nature nobody speaks.
We know some behave in strange ways.
We don't know exactly why or how
Since they are invisible.
Well, that's what the astrophysicists claim.
As for me since I can't see them
With my naked eye, no pun intended,
So it's like having been blind the last 14
or so billions years so it wouldn't matter
If all of a sudden I were to see one
Because by then I'd be so close
I wouldn't have time to report to you.
In the scale of things and time
We are of microscopic magnitude
And when we're being swallowed
By one of those dark behemoths
We don't feel it. Well, sometimes
I wonder what's that shortness
Of breath is all about which could be
The sucking vacuum effect.
What I worry to no end
Is what happens when a black hole
Ingests another and wonder
How ravenous can the gods be?
And whether the displacement
Of the center of gravity of their belly
Is of any significance to us.
