Interstellar Irrelevance
Attend to the Coverlet of Darkness,
Bedight with Stars celestial,
Where Atomical Amalgamation doth unfold,
Much akin to thy touch,
warming this heart ethereal.

In ancient days, the Constellations fair,
Formed ere my mortal inception,
Ere the ancestral tides of yore,
Ere the venerated forebears we revere in reflection.

Nebulae, bedecked in resplendent grandeur,
To ensnare my ever-longing spirit,
These celestial cradles vast and august,
Doth humble me with their monumental merit.

As the Universe's expanse partly unveiled,
And the Enigmas of Ocean Depths unfurled,
To the abyss of our Unfathomable Intellects,
I descend, enraptured in this cosmic world.

The more I quest, the more I wonder,
Wherefore I trod this terrestrial sphere,
"The loftier my pursuit, the clearer I discern,
My interstellar irrelevance."
