Not Fade Away – 24th January 2025

In every atom a universe
Where the sentient must survive
A speed of light, and so traverse
To keep life’s dream alive

Not fade away, cease to exist
Or slowly rendered rotten
The innate urge to persist
And never be forgotten

Without thought, without emotion
The proton set to dance
And swim the primordial ocean
Where life takes one more chance

Shared with No Theme Thursday picture prompt and also to dVerse’s MTB prompt about negation (which this poem sort of fits)

    1. At one time I watched the course/lectures Zero to Inifinity – A History of Numbers. Whilst some of it flew way over head the ones about zero and infinity were fascinating.
