Quantum Lighthouse (new poem)

Quantum Lighthouse (new poem)
by Tim Kavi

folded origami

I jumped across 
the parsecs that stretched
for millions of kilometers 
across space and time
intersecting spectral lines
on a cosmic chess board

I walked like one of those ships
reeling towards my life
going by far too quickly now
there is in the shadows lurking
a fearful sight
baffling revelations of science

meeting myself in the cosmic night.
