Transition
When the cosmos at last recalls
components it had loaned me,
and the pull on inner quantum space
of dark matter's gravity
becomes far too compelling,
I must make the final journey.
Stay the requiem for those who care,
don’t chant your prayers for me:
my Heaven has been here and now,
with reason my Holy See.
I’ve savoured life with gusto,
proud, and superstition-free.
I’ve drunk of life’s heady wine,
through seasons glad and tragic,
but dealt with it all in my own way,
reasoned, but idiosyncratic.
I pass, having fully lived
this moment of wonder and magic.
