Scars mark up the soil, dust flies in the air

Sounds echo, like tin foil, coming out of nowhere

Figures lurk in the darkness; eerie lights fill the sky

Sending out signs of distress, officially, they deny

Stories fill up the tabloids, spilling into the news

Warnings from lyrics of Pink Floyd, the ones in fishbowls, are you

Houston, we have a problem, major Tom can't be reached

Call for Batman and Robin, earth's atmosphere has been breached

Sci Fi

    Very cool. “E.T. Call home!” Love it 🥰

  • Oh, so many references & fascinations from my youth, all combined into one big ball of conspiracy theory & pop culture. So much fun!
