in a soundless concussion of light, Earth's core gave up its hoarded energies. for a little while the gravitational waves crossed and recrossed the solar system, distubing ever so slightly the orbits of the planets. then the sun's remaining children pursused their ancient path's once more, as corks floating on a placid lake ride out the tiny ripples set in motion by a falling stone.
there was nothing left of Earth. they had leeched the last atoms of its substance. it had nourished them, through the fierce moments of their inconceivable metamorphosis, as the food stored in a grain of wheat feeds the infant plant while it climbs towards the sun. (c) Arthur C. Clarke, (1954)
