Alexandria’s Genesis
violet orbs
                 a solar flare
an ellipse of nebulas
                 clothing two idle galaxies
these celestial bodies
                 are fatal
a look can mangle
                 the most perfect fraction
and blast what floats nearby
medusa’s domain
                 will swallow whole
what dares to steady itself inside
                  a haze of confusion
a cosmic inferno of shreds
