Speeding through the void

A silver star’s silent scream

Swallowed by darkness

Separated twin stars split in seconds snap.

Jai-li , lacrosse, hurl to space light sheets

The othe into dark nightmare snares.

Wandering star, for whom

it is reserved - the blackness

the darkness - forever

In the core - stars dance

like billiards. But gravity

can shoot them away.

Starlight streaks the night

A million miles per hour—

Earth stands still, watching

.

Black hole's violent push

Orphaned star races outward—

A leaf in the wind

.

Galaxy spins on

One star flung to the far dark—

Pebble in a stream

Hypervelocity: noun.

Sappho's fragments reassembled

at 1.5 million mph.

.

Black hole binary—

one star consumed, one ejected.

Orpheus looks back.

.

Milky Way's center:

a cosmic slingshot.

Stars: the new Icarus.

The star missed his friend,

They'd always been a pair, but,

Now he shone alone... 😎
