Sleeping Satellite

In a mass of black out there in the beyond
Planets we know are in mirror respond

This vast we know as space in our time
All the planets are round symmetrical in rhyme

Will it's orbital allowance defy negative stream
Or is it back to the drawing board for man to again dream

Spaceships cubed with edges severe
When Warp allows will our technology wear

We live in a streamline, a streamline world
Our planet in decline but will our future be heard

The lucky ones will see, out there
For the unfortunate, saying goodbye in stare

And all they will see, is the moon in their sight
As their earth will become, another sleeping satellite

I do fear we are heading in the direction of becoming "another sleeping satellite." You give us much to ponder in this amazing poem, James. Awesome! Love, Carolyn
