Barrier At The Heart


from the ABC set 2007

Break the barrier at the heart of the galaxy,
Where stars are drowning in a well of gravity
And the sky is silver, flecked with ebony.

Send a message from the brink of infinity,
Where words are alien; bereft of humanity
And the meaning of dark matter fills the disparity.

Track a footprint on the shores of sanity,
Where the tides of time erode surface reality
And the earth is a washed up pebble of vanity.
