“The Pit Beneath The Stars by Stewart Stafford R2D2's brother, aflame, Riptides of amber embers, A multitude of fireflies in flight, Under an arras of purple stars. Laughs and tall tales flow, A dragon's belch scorches, Sparks and choking smoke, In the moon's judging glare.

The Pit Beneath The Stars by Stewart Stafford
R2D2's brother, aflame,
Riptides of amber embers,
A multitude of fireflies in flight,
Under an arras of purple stars.
Laughs and tall tales flow,
A dragon's belch scorches,
Sparks and choking smoke,
In the moon's judging glare.
The blaze, burning down,
To a distant starry realm,
Bedtime ticking closer,
Creaking limbs go upstairs.
