I briefly close my eyes From the stabbing sunlight And the skyscrapers' mirror of it, Still seeing the vision's negative Burnt behind eyelids, Like stars, studded in spinning galaxies Spiraling outward, Drag their shadows - Dark nebulae pocked with black holes. Now my damaged nerves see A billion days break Like crystal You have created a wonderful poem out of mundane daily routine of returning home after night shift. Summer day's bright light and heat and sunshine reflecting all around shattered inner webs of your eyes and mind. By closing your eyes for a moment you have gone through the big bang theory of this ever-expanding universe. This momentary experience is like traveling in space and time with speed of light. The image of black holes has come through paradoxically and ingrained very artfully. Because black holes are huge dense stars that do not allow even a single ray of light to come out or reflect from their surface because of their density. A thought provoking, imaginative and knowledge oriented poem, Lillian. I really enjoyed this reading. Thanks for sharing. Warm Regards Naseer

Like stars, studded in spinning galaxies Spiraling outward, Drag their shadows - A dark nebulae pocked with black holes. Now my damaged nerves see A billion days break Like crystal. I adore these lines! Fantastic creativity behind each verse. Cheers Lillian! H&K's Jessica (:
