Sailing thru the failing solar winds
Return to the beginning once again
Spacetime evaporating
Heat death is awaiting
Our cargo shall determine how this ends
An alloy we’ve invented seems able
To hold matter-energy & keep it stable
But the elements we need
Are rare and out of reach
So we take this hero’s journey, like a fable
In our vessel is a vessel made the same
The smaller vessel holds our claim to fame
It’s a piece of universe
Uncorrupted by the worst
Of what makes everything around us be the same
We must throw it in a black hole or die trying
Either way we’ll probably end up dying
But if we toss it in
The theory is that then
It’s the end of everything we’ll be defying
A tiny dense nugget of existence
Hurling through the void with such insistence
Until it lands and it expands
With a big but silent bang
& everything begins again with life’s persistence
