Astrophysical Love Triangle

Astrophysical Love Triangle

Eons ago, there was a binary star,
Vibrant, perennial, and extremely far.

Like a sweet couple,
in an orbital hustle.

But alas, the harmony was temporary.
The future was different from the events contemporary.

They entered a zone of strong gravity.
An object which caused a deep cavity.

An uninvited member trying to tangle,
making an astrophysical love triangle.

The black-hole attracts one of the pair,
sending the other one into despair.

Alone and gloomy, carrying sheer animosity,
It’s ready to leave the galaxy with hyper-velocity.

P.S- This poem is based on the research paper by Koposov et al. - The Great Escape.
