Time blankly contemplates her realm,
Impervious to eternity’s breadth,
Imperial in her voluptuous weight,
Impregnable while motion expands.

Chaos shows skittish random patterns
Of unknown motives, oscillating and
Distressing to discordant passages,
In her eagerness to shock her mistress.

Cavity sings her invisible encompassing art,
Filled from the outside in with darkness,
Echoing junctured thoughts with starlight,
Painted deep into celestial castle’s depths.

Cause curtseys with Caution, pirouetting
With attention, effectively reprimanding
Carelessness, who churns the outer fringes,
Hoping for irresponsible actions to append.

Curiosity inveigles an invitation to peruse
Inventiveness, peering into right angles
And parallelisms, glowing compulsively
While capturing further communications.

Cardinal constantly weeps, abandoning
Her fundamental virtues to the dungeon,
Time’s traveling imbues her principal truths
With unhappy awareness of lengthening death.

Creativity shivers with oft-fulfilled glee,
Aspirating founts of appreciation,
Catapulting energy frenetically
While spinning off universe origins.

Carbon anxiously anticipates queenly ire,
Respirations arcing and delving into fantasy,
Self-importance consuming her core,
Turning away from ageless monstrous beauty.

Courtly counterparts interact inherently,
Unrestrained Life evolves periodically,
Time observes all with multi-faceted eyes,
Inhaling a sigh, She reenters infinity.
