Reality Dreamare

Menacing silence fills the air All is still nobody moves Darkness covers all the land Only dim lights penetrate the gloom Yet within this void four men sit Awake yet silent awaiting a call To start moving at a frightening pace Together but to each alone Soon the call to summon arrives Up in a flash, out into the cold Picking equipment up off the table Knocking over tin mugs of chocolate gone cold Sprinting across the grass as fast as they can To where many hours they'll spend Their temporary home of unusual dimensions A big machine they will tend Up in the night sky they go Four engines revving fast Each man designated a section His job will be done alone tonight Many hours they are away Scenery changing below Darkness still shrouds the perspex Awaiting the morning red glow
