She is the center of her own world. Ruling those around her with quick words,
frenzied comments and an unbeatable drive to be first. To conquer others through the sheer rush of
finishing first. She imagines others spinning round her, colliding into the literature
she consumes at the core and tosses out into her system as if she were their
sun, leaving bright zodiacal light all around to be called dust. But that dust was once stars. And those stars are held together only by
their own gravity. They don’t need her
to feed them light. In truth, it is her pull that would try to consume
them. Devour them. Her fire burns the brightest on the surface as
her core has already begun to shrink, so soon she’ll collapse and leave nothing
more than a black hole.
