Shall I compare thee to SDSS J0907?
Since we don’t have summer days
How about an intergalactic hypervelocity star blazing
through the heavens
Making gravitational waves
See this star and its mate were doing laps
While Sagittarius was earning A* grades
But its mate got a bit lax, went space Icarus
In this case the event horizon of a black hole stands in
place of wax
And the binary system that filled farmer’s heads with
Tatooine dreams
Went from spinning around a cosmic cistern
To slingshotting a single star out on a galactic escape
mission
The bonds that had begun to chafe were smashed
Safe to say the star was free at last
And with space being so vast
I pray this brush with fate will be the last
The other was not so lucky
As black holes they tend to suck so
In scientific terms: it was completely fucked
But as this is a metaphor don’t feel sorry for that star
Just twinkle on my darling girl
And know which one you are
