Satori at 11:30 Saturday Morning (poem)

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle supernova

Explodes outward into space

Slamming my body back in the chair

Hurtling my consciousness to the edge

Of the universe, where the quasars lie

Which some say are portals

The gateways to heaven

And just at the moment I reach out

The force of gravity pulls me away

As the dying star's energy is spent

And it implodes, collapsing in on itself

Becoming a sucking black hole

A quantum singularity

Drawing in and devouring all that is

Matter and energy in all their forms

The entire spacetime fabric

Of transdimensional existence

In all the Omniverse

I am alone and adrift in the midst

Seeing the infinity of space

And the eternity of time

In relation to me

Then suddenly I see myself

From its point of view

A miniscule insignificance

To that vast expanse

More relatively infintessimal

Than a quark to planet Earth

As the vision clears from my sight

And my consciousness returns to its body

I laugh at myself

Because now I am free

This Universe is 213 duovigintillion (69 zeroes) km³

and 13.8 billion years old

Our planet Terra is
34,782,733,730,000 (34.8 x 10¹² or 34.8 quadrillion) km³

A mere 1.63 x 10^-58 (16.3 octodecillionths) the size of this Universe
