From the Dark Side of the Moon

Nightfall in the city As the moon appears in the night sky City dwellers are either having a drink or are off to dreamland On the other side of the moon Someone is waiting, waiting for the earth to revolve again Can't you see we are being watched? Cold eyes from space peer out at the fragile inhabitants of our planet Our fate does not lie within our grasp Soon the masters will reveal themselves From the lunar landscape comes our only hope It is really a shot in the dark But it is our best chance of humanity remaining on earth until the next millenium rolls around

so are you saying we need to find a way to live on the moon or just keep it in our dreams? You always have such interesting thoughts. I sure envy you getting to see the broadway shows.

All will be fine and nothing will happen before its time for HE has foreseen everything! Yes, we have to wait till the eternal laws we learn to obey! Wonderful writing dear Matthew!
