Even if we went beyond the bounds
Of space and time
We would see an infinite multiverse
Lasting forever.
For We are lost
So utterly lost
Amongst countless numbers
Of galaxies and stars.
Words cannot do justice
To this miraculous wonder.
Call it a cosmos
Or a universe
What you will
This black vastness
Is beyond human comprehension.
Our own little Earth
May well be replicated
Endless times:
Infinite numbers of rocky worlds
Orbiting their suns
In cosy Goldilocks zones.
Perhaps each universe explodes to life
Then fades
Like some Groundhog Super-Age
Lasting many trillions of years
Each Repeat.
But it matters not
As eternal infinity is time and space enough
For anything to happen.
And it matters not
Unless there is someone around
To witness and experience it all.
And that’s where We come in.
That’s our role.
