Hello Earthling

Static whispers on the wire's thread, Another signal from a world long dead. Screens are flickering, a pale blue light, Lost in the city on a lonely night. The concrete breathes a cold and silent sigh, As satellites drift across the inky sky. Hello Earthling, can you hear my call? Across the distance, standing ten feet tall Behind the glass, where the echoes play, Dreaming of galaxies so far away. Hello Earthling, do you see the gleam? A fractured vision of a cosmic dream. Data streams like rivers in the dark, Each fleeting message leaves its fragile mark. I navigate these currents, cold and deep, While weary circuits struggle hard to sleep. The neon canyons hum a restless tune, Beneath the silent, watchful, silver moon. Hello Earthling, can you hear my call? Across the distance, standing ten feet tall Behind the glass, where the echoes play, Dreaming of galaxies so far away. Hello Earthling, do you see the gleam? A fractured vision of a cosmic dream. Gravity pulls, a constant, heavy hand, But in my mind, I walk on shifting sand Of distant planets, bathed in alien sun, Where silent orbits have already begun. Hello Earthling, can you hear my call? Across the distance, standing ten feet tall Behind the glass, where the echoes play, Dreaming of galaxies so far away. Hello Earthling, do you see the gleam? A fractured vision of a cosmic dream. Fading signal, lost in atmosphere, A lonely echo, year after year. Spaceboy calling... fading... gone... so far... Underneath a cold and distant star.
