In the world of after dark

The captain sits in the seat 

On the right side of the throne

He holds a rope


A rope that connects to the other side

We don’t talk about the other side

Seen as the unseen side of the moon

He projects the picture 


She sees 

She projects the picture 

He sees 

They run together 


They coil their spines until they become rope


The rope that connects to the other side
