The Fear of Dark.
From the satellite...we see electricity
Burning from every land...hot brilliance of fires on earth
...our burning planet
That glare that stops us seeing
All the universe....beyond that vast beyond.
A fevered glow is blocking out
The cycle of the moons
Out there beyond
The fear of dark
Rules out the great experience.
Lit up round the clock...?
The tug of tusk
For easy ivory .
