“Starborn Cipher” explores the loneliness and wonder of deep space through the lens of a traveler who discovers a mysterious cosmic message woven into starlight. The poem blends science and myth, using nebulae, comets, and quantum signals as symbols for connection, fate, and the enduring human desire to understand our place in the universe.
At its heart, the piece suggests that even in the vast silence of space, we are not forgotten—that the universe itself carries memory, meaning, and messages for those who dare to listen.
