There Are None So Blind
The light surface
leads to a black hole,
a darkened soul
and something
so out of control
it uses the light
to swallow you whole,
and yet you long
to touch it.
Poor baby.

As they say, nothing escapes a black hole, so it's best to watch from afar, but those who long to be near or touch...hmm, it's a far more dangerous / painful than we can imagine.
Nice spill.
