A Spin Around the Block

Technology with all machinery grinds to a halt
Even the stop watch does what it does best
People will be affected if their world simply leaves
Who is to question the nature of unbridled power?

Earth takes one more spin around the block
Calls it a day as it speeds merrily away into space
Leaving an angry sun behind with many questions
Void of reality, left to ponder divorce and lost company
Soon the moon too breaks the engagement 
There will be no more dancing under the stars 
 
God smiles on the light He has created from the nothing
But Earth will have to be punished for what it has done
