Desolation

On the moon, what's there to do?

Cut off from Earth, our planet blue.

Both bathed in glow of sunlight yellow.

But in Artemis, we're all poor fellows.

Earth's lands in shades of brown and green,

Its beauty cannot go unseen.

While on the moon, just dunes of dust,

And vagabonds, whom none can trust.

A shining beacon in the black?

Or humanity's detritus sack?

The stars beyond, from red to white,

We cannot see their sparks of light.

One day, our sun, it will turn red,

But our moon will still be dead.

Us rotting here, this barren moon,

In Artemis, we know our doom.
