Born with the death of a giant star
lies a black hole in our sky
Stars spin round the accretion disc
like a needle on a forty five
Gravity plays it's darkest tune
holding light against it's will
It's lawless physics hold a secret
infinite density
Meeting the event horizon all is calm
time stands still
Cross the horizon, theres no going back
Just black

Beautiful work.
Nicely done.
What happens to or where is all the matter and energy absorbed by the black hole? One of the great mysteries of our time. Do all the black holes eventually consume everything? Do they then consume each other? Do we get a second Big Bang? Too many questions. Too few answers. Great poem Loved it. - Phil A
Yup, nicely put. Strange place this universe be.
