Monsterworks - Universe

Beginning in oblivion
Primeval atom point
Forces once unified
Spontaneously tear apart
Creating space and time

Inflation for a millionth of a second
Mass from energy
As it cools in a new expanse
Welcome first gravity
Then strong and weak nuclear
Electromagnetic might
By the first second fundamental particles take form

Nucleosynthesis
Recombination

Now there is enough substance
To be called a void

All the time in the Universe
For Building blocks to coalesce

Until the first spark ignites
Hydrogen compressed to fusion
The first sun is born
A light to shine in the darkness

And then everywhere at last the sky is on fire

Circles in circles, background dispersed, defining a ghost of
the past
Is this the first or the last or the middle of infinity
What was meant to be!

Cyclical regression
Exists, as observed
Chaos and imperfection is the seed of existence
Sown so that it will evolve

Universe of untold beauty
Elegant, complete and free
