Meditations

The unfathomable enormity of space, the inconceivable distances between everything known to exist within a departing universe of expanding uncertainty, a space escaping itself, so that astronomy and cosmology become meditations of my own smallness in context, the smaller I become, the transient bravado consciousness returns to micro speck of nothing dust, soul debri, more flotsam for eternity- continuing as primary mortal or celestial mystery.
