Black Holes

I am not the Sun,
nor do I presume to be,
but I sympathise and admire
the helium.  (not helios)

Did you know that we will
never ever ever
be a black hole?  Of all the deaths
the biggest one will never be ours
of all the lights,
we can only witness
the biggest
and the smallest. 

But the biggest and smallest lights
can not witness us.
The earth contains exclusive rights
to witess. 

And should we become a black hole
ticking clocks would slow to a trickle
and should we become a black hole
the light of the universe should flood in
as soon as we fall inside
its dark gravity.

yesyesyes
possibly,
that's us.
