Dark Matter

Stretching across 270 million light years. Three times larger than any other know structure and 3000 times larger than our galaxy. Just filaments and sheets.

Dark matter. Invisible. The only way you can detect the presence is to check if anything in the vicinity is affected. How i wish i was there instead of here. May be i am really there and not here.

Amidst the mildly squeaky noise of the little birds, the first ray of sunlight from the window pierced my eyelids and forced me to stop the line of thought.

Should i be glad it is sunshine and not the dark matter i live with?

Or may be it's just the window i should close.
