Rock Until Everything

Trees tower over cliffs

Trees, cleaving root to rock

Rock to soil, painting mountains

Rock to sand of the rusted desert

Desert of light

Desert of shadows

Shadows which swirl

Shadows together with light

Light which reveals colors

Light with vibrancy

Vibrancy shimmering, swirling

Vibrancy whirling, dancing

Dancing, swaying

Dancing, singing

Singing dimly with loud voices

Singing jubilantly with silenced tongues

Tongues wagging, swaying

Tongues singing, laughing

Laughing and talking

Laughing and crying

Crying like gulls

Crying above the sea

Sea's waves crashing with its own

Sea of waves

Waves filled with the living

Waves of cycles

Cycles churning

Cycles whirling

Whirling in chaos

Whirling beneath the depths'

Depths further than ever

Depths were thought to go

Go forward, ever onward

Go again towards the brink

Brink of desire

Brink of pain

Pain deeper than the sea's depths

Pain higher than stars

Stars fueled by hydrogen

Stars fueled by fusion

Fusion of everything

Fusion of nothing

Nothing again remains

Nothing again perpetuates

Perpetuates into a singularity

Perpetuates into everything

Everything continues on

Everything as always

Always

Everything
