fauxcroft

I stood in black under stars at night

Ready for flight or to stand and fight

But what comes from the stars we need not fear

The biggest threat to us lives right here

And is heading ever closer to self extinction

Failing to cover itself in distinction

If something appears from another galaxy

I’d hitch a ride and fly far away

Discover a new destiny

In a flight of total fantasy

But who is to say this is not real

We create all we see, experience and feel

So I stand here waiting for the last battle end

To escape this mess or to fight in defence

For this planet, our home, on which we depend.
