The 4th Dimension
Can consciousness be compressed
like a distant Black Hole
Into a photon and travel away
Coursing into the darkness
at the speed of light
Reality curving and swaying
With entropy chasing
and time not around
Each Dwarf Star awaiting its fall
The one last dimension, thought lost
and now found
A new portal—unlocked to enthrall
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
