dark    night,bright   light.  little 
 soot-cat hiding  from the  ion  plume. 
                          
 a  grungyteenager,with   soot  smeared 
 acrossher  eyes,  under the  shadow  
 of what  they   call   thespaceship. 
                                 
 a  secret  ordinance  aimed at the  sky, 
 fuel  still being  synthesized  offsite. 
 she's      a     sentinel.        
 she  thinks:    soon  we  will   create 
 cavities   within  the   satellite. 
                                    
 the  spaceship  morphs ever  so  slowly, 
 casting and recasting shadows  as big as 
 entire  districts.  but  currently,  she 
 would be  in the open, if not for hiding 
 in a    hollowed   out delivery truck. 
                                          
 spaceship   hovering,  ion  exhaust,  
 spore      exhaust,   an   otherworldly 
 snowstorm  of  alien  dandruff  (and the 
 air   perpetually  compromised,   making 
 them  breathe  in  all  sorts   of  nice 
 things   leading   to   all   sorts   of 
 reasonable                       states)
