Replying to a comment on:

Light (Free verse) by Quarton

Light, on a summer night; chased by a child whose hand reaches out--captures the light. Opens her hand; the glowfly blinks, then flies away. In a far away galaxy, a giant star implodes. Like the glowfly, its light goes out; infinite density the strange result. The end of light, like the end of time. A black hole remains, incapable of flight. Child's hand closed, like gravity implied, the glowfly's freedom forever denied.

I'm reading an anthology right now: Staying alive (real poems for unreal times) By Neil Astley. I remember a poem that made mention of black holes or a black hole and your poetry came to mind. I cant seem to find the poem but the whole anthology is reeeeeely good.

Um, mamm-outh? and gladfly/glowfly? Planet-fly or moon-fly could be used? don't know. 8
