Monochromatic World - Ugress

It’s time for us to go outside

Hello Earth, can you hear us?

We’re in the airlock now and the door is opening

In just a few seconds we’ll have our first look close at the surface

It’s so difficult to believe we’re actually here

The barrenness is hard to believe

Not the slightest sign of life anywhere

Nothing but the rocks and the dust glaring in the sun

And deep black shadows which is sharper and harder then any seen on Earth

It’s almost a.

a.

a.

A monochromatic world, monochromatic world

Like a old fashioned sepia photograph

Deep black shadows, hard to believe

Almost a.

close up.

hard to believe… (here)

Like a monochromatic world (what in heavens!)

Big black monochromatic world

The sky is black

Not a trees, not a blade of grass (no. no. nothing)

The sky is black, (oh heavens. there it is.)

Monochromatic world

Like a old fashioned sepia photograph

Big black shadows.

(nothing!)

Sharper and black harder (what in heavens!)

What in heavens name is that?

It sounds like music

Music I’ve never heard before

It scares me stiff

Did I hear a voice?

It’s nothing to be scared of

None of us is going to be hurt

There are things out here

Even on the fringe of space

You don’t comprehend
