Moonfall

”our civilization will become either spacefaring or extinct.”CARL SAGAN

Starting back to our outpost
as moon’s setting
on this strange planet

eerie mist descends
shadows shifting

moonfall’s coming
too quickly

idiot
waited too long

soon
total darkness

oxygen depleting

I’m lost
in trouble
I’ll not make it back

activating rescue beacon
I pray

    1. This is about our rocket man, Artheo. Yes Merril, our intrepid space traveler Artheo, finds himself potentially stranded on Planet Droon, in the Toluras sextus planet region — made up of Droon, Telma, Gemin, Toluras, Gaia, and Topiarus. He needs to reach the shuttle back to the mother ship Dextorium, or he may suffer a fate similar to what happened to the ill-fated crew on the Thadius, the ship on which Artheo’s wife Sephias lost her life. The Dextorium, though it had lost contact with the Sextus planet group for a priod, it is now in contact again, and still a quite safe and viable ship.

  1. I would have been a terrible astronaut, this type of situations is as bad or worse than being buried alive
