A mind like molecules
Vibrating with potential
A steady alpha decay
Inching towards critical

Let the countdown continue
Clouds condensing to masses
With a bang or a whimper
Time's arrow advances

Tracing vectors through space
With mathematical precision
Chasing epiphany's footsteps
Just beyond this dimension

As matter touches soul
Dualist illusions rekindle
A mortal puppet awakens
Alive yet ephemeral

Senses tuned to her livestream
Secrets, the muse spoke
The madness! The beauty!
Seconds later...
                Wistfully...
                            I awoke.
