Conjectures on the ways we are most like stars:

#1
Beyond a point, there is only trivial difference between a body growing impossibly large and moving impossibly fast.

#2
This tremendous measure is a new thing. Unsustainable. We call it by the name it took at rest until it leaves, then call the pull of its absence something else.

#3
If you were the great thing in this story, and sense could survive, things would change but not enough. As you ran out of universe it would still seem you could be bigger, still places further. Your rise in the charts too large to trust or worry. Friends would not seem further but the world would get old fast. A spotlight would strike you the same way. All people would see is the red-and-black tracks you left.

#4
In real life you die long before, like any body subject to law and force. Even in theory you've got die, if we want to stand somewhere memory works at all. We know the horizon where knowing stops.You can be somebody missing or nobody.

#4 (corollary)

It's all good, baby baby.
