Sadness ( solar wind)

A Stars last radiance
An outer shell bursting forth
with great commotion, reds, yellow
and blue sent forth
Riding effortlessly as tap dancers perform presciently
with grace of form and transience atop fractals
of force without a visual spectrum
Far outside a perimeter of course

light blinding as
gales of wandering atoms
are carried along for the ride
A typhoon fierce and unexpected
rough, hidden, sans compassion

A rapist in the void
to steal countless worlds
Virtue - penetrate atmospheres
Rip them to shreds around
pristine bodies then
leave the carcass to
Vagaries of a universe too
harsh and large as
Radiation seeps through every pore

Now the entire being is
left. Dirty in rags - unwanted
Trash in a solar neighborhood
now marked shanty.
