upend Upheaval, the darkest Dearth
void with no Other, thickest Nothing
the pulling non-Puller, the exserted Holder
the Centre arrested taut, Ends drawn away
dissolved Core, element scattered to Dust
slipstream Cinders, Ash, and Grains
all-seeing Stars, the single Witness
seven-million centuries After
the Evanesced, the Echoes, the Ended.
