exiting the snake at last teeth again

the old worm squeezing
the planet
and devouring its own aboral parts
dislodged, floated free
became a moon
glaring down
at its erstwhile home

The Worm Ouroboros

We live and love, but rising underneath

The Word that ends it all is uttered soft

It tears the world apart and chaos yawns

As space and time like tissue paper rent

Are whelmed by nothingness and then are gone

Another Word engendered everything

Contained annihilation’s deadly seed

A toxic portion of Creation’s plan.

Now gone are empires, stars, and planets too

The pain of life and death we bid farewell

But when all matter, energy have passed

And nothing anywhere exists at all

Just wait (though time its tocking breath holds in)

The board’s re-set; it’s time to move again.

The cavern beyond
the mouth of Ouroboros
is long
creatures live there
that shun the light
turn back when you have burned half of your torches
you will see the bones of those
who did not
if you go far enough
the creatures disappear
but acid fumes manifest
it is now too late
you are the foods of Ouroboros

the smaller planet
was ringed by a flatworm
tail in its mouth

Luna’s Ouroborean Heart

the

moon’s

south pole

dome is built

over ice found there;

waste heat and water move down to

stillborn lunar wyrm, which shakes off the cold, digs toward source;

lovely moist heat; Luna’s heart beats;

human bowels loose;

Earth is close

but so

so

far

Jupiter's solid core is squeezed
by the worm Ouroboros' twin
its liver pecked out daily
by what passes there for crows

walk right in

doesn't the world
snake ever get hungry
trolls do
