patient, those waves
wear down years
of stress.
crashes resounding
from smoothed rock
to heavens;
a universe watching
develops a brilliant
patina.
space does favor
the dearly drowned, eras
dismissed
with rash rounding
of doomed epochs
into error;
the universe stagnates,
dew drops in a million
aminos.
danger won't waver
or count fears
before arresting
and smashing, pounding,
assuming lost
grandeur,
attuning worse toxins
dutifully to vilify
only you.
