if we shut down traffic lights
turned off street lamps
& store signs
if the radios & railways fell dark
if gravity & vulcanism
ground to a halt
if all the stars in the universe
burned out
there would still be us
unencumbered
unformed with no time
unnumbered
there would still be us
as in we
in the dark
unlighted & free
we as the endless
we as the essence
us as in alpha & omega
if only we turned out the lights

Transdimensional Poet 
I love the rhythm of this, as well as the freedom the reader experiences reading the piece.. and that definitive end, which lets the reader – in union with the narrator, us, in essence – float free. Magical.
