Atoms merge

to dance in depth,

we are marvels

from birth to death

 

A thrilling sprint

initiates terms,

of evolution’s

matured returns

 

Sequence prints

perpetual math

of genetic ciphers

eluding grasp

 

As configured coils

fuse and bind,

trillions of arrayed

spirals unwind

 

Ignited signals

index directions,

in neural grids

of dynamic connections

 

Cognition nets

intrinsic volumes

of nerve response

and dodging problems

 

From compounds

we’re a conjured gift,

in orbits moving

ever swift

 

Celestial feats

of unearthly remnants

fill a universe

of mystique’s dependents

 

What we know

of dying stars

is that their dust

is somehow ours

 

We’re mortal embers

glowing as we fade,

as pairings flourish

in a cosmic parade
