Look Inside

Love is a force for good, but what weird fate
That from it is born the greatest cause for hate.
— From Nebula - 24.03.2023

But perhaps tales are tales and fate, one's own;
Life's once, death's final, this much is surely known.
But within life are stories travelers must themselves write
And therein lies the secret to their eternal flight.

If once across all of creation nature has erred,
Her Majesty's who that glitch has prepared.
