Dark matter clues in oldest stars, 14 September 2007, By Liz Seward, Science reporter, York

The Dark Side

What is dark matter?
    A stealth predator that devours light
        or wild goose chase proposed by the mad hatter?

How not to be seen?
    Could dark matter be cloaked
        by a fluctuating ensemble of mini black holes?
        by a radiative field that cancels light?
        by anti-photon photon annihilation?
        or by dark particles with near zero mass
            and velocities greater than C?
    Will we ever see?

Perhaps a Bose-Einstein condensate at absolute zero
    gently glows
        when dark matter flows
            suggesting its essence
                illuminating the dark presence

Finally exposing the predator to a deeper chatter
