Furnace of nihil

Mira, the red giant, swells in exhaustion
Aged, pulsating, expanding and contracting
The agonized growth, and forced collapse immanent

Poised and waiting for the transformation
The decaying and spent beast self immolates
Unlocking nightmares of sweltering eradication

Insidious layers of mass, stream through the interstellar
And engulf world by world
Enveloping the infinities with the strangle of abolition
All paths could only lead to damnation

Thrust off into hinterlands of spectral obscurity
Suspended in the furthest and most frigid pocket of abandon?
Or remain and be drought, scorched
And painted three shades of grim
At last, the cataclysmic finale awaits
Entombed in the furnace of nihil!

Earth is cremated...
As Mira staggers, dwarfing all existence!
