Hi there!!

Wonder if this will work?




When there is no sun.

Inspired by Sun Ra and John Gilmore


The sky is a sea of darkness,
A blanket sewn of shale.
Loosened from its harness,
A perforated widow’s veil.

Without the sun, there is no day.
There is no day.
There is no day.

The sky is a sea of darkness,
The earth a drying ball of clay;
Adrift without an orbit,
Searching for a vacant quay.

When there is no sun,
There is no day.
There is no day.
There is no day.

Without the sun, the moon will hang,
It’s orbit gone askew,
Its presence only felt by us,
When hiding stars from view.

There is no day
There is no day
There’s only darkness
Eternal sea of darkness

When there is no sun, there is no day.
And now I have no doubt –
My planetary carousel,
Is starting to rust out.
