Strange Allegory

Vader: I find your lack of faith

disturbing.

Tarkin: Enough of this! Vader,

release him!

Lately,

We lived a strange allegory,

With you here

And me on Alpha Centauri,

With a connection made

More EM - than TELE-pathically.

Boldly,

You're exploring the moon, wildly,

Of Endor,

With me, elegantly,

Trying to invade,

This forest-moon of liberty,

Because, well - you see -,

Here, on Alpha Centauri,

Beings like me,

Don't understand being free.

Yet, fear not.

Clearly.

I misremember the journey

To Cloud City,

And its teachings of Anti

-Gravity,

It's because of the dust, I suppose,

On Alpha Centauri.

Maybe.

But, Fear not.

Eventually,

I'll learn to fly,

With the speed of light, dazzingly,

Towards undreamed dreams, in dreamy -

Landscapes, empty

At first,

Yet free.

Beyond Bespin, and Alderaan

And Mustafar,

Beyond Mon Calamari,

And even Alpha Centauri,

Beyond Hoth, Camino

And Naboo

TELE-pathically,

From QuantumSpaceAttachments,

Leaving traces,

Just for you.
