It never happened
But it could have
What would it have been like?
Maybe like every other
One
Ending in fire and fury
Or a quiet pulverization
Or neverending
Never ashing
Not worth a
Second thought?
Maybe
Never started so
Suspended in stasis
A fire that froze
Like a slow-motion
Fuze
Lighting off
Space dust
Starstuff
By any other name,
Potential
Elements of creation
So close
But never to burn
To cinders
A zugzwang
Choices
Decisions
To always
Yet neverash
Consume Reality!
