"Otherness"
A single point in time,
A trapped moment.
I am suspended,
Soaring,
Through the scifi
Techno swirl
Of wormhole energies,
Careening towards the edge of Forever.
At this point time stands still,
For just an instant,
Even as the universe flies past
At incredible speeds.
Cold fire burns through me,
In me,
Around me.
Deranged space-time,
Twisted beyond all recognition,
Screams madly in my ear.
Electric blues dazzle,
Confound my eyes.
Glimpses of black space tantalise,
Frighten.
If I reached out,
If I snatched at the threads
Of impossibility,
Could I change my path?
Would I tumble myself out
Into the dark depths of space?
A fearful thought;
I don't try.
But still I wonder.
I wonder.
And then I step out of the Stargate.
