Description Stars pour forth
thoughts and n#mbers
universal principles
generating anomalies
the mμn bringing up
waves, like a god
gravity dominates
this, these worlds:

these entities that pμll,
they penetrate to the deepest level
to the most high god
and they pμsh
and they dream
of a seamless, eternal day
where there is no obligation
to pμsh or pμll:

But in space there are but
points of light, tearing against
the walls of blackness.

Attention needed to punctuation, to get those sentences working well for the piece. Cut one of the 'but's from the final line. I think you could lose a few 'these's and 'they's, which don't add much to the text, and thereby compress a little. Other than that, I really liked this piece (even the gimmicks - a rare example of them actually serving a purpose). Well done.

"Stars pour forth
thoughts and n#mbers"

For some reason the image that line puts into my head is a torrent of binary code.

I like this poem a lot. It's got strong word choice and mostly strong word flow. I think I will fave this.

Why thank you

Although I know a lot of writers seem to go against 'gimmicks' i find them useful when conveying imagery (n#mbers) - glad it had the effect I was going for.
