Space Cadet's Fate: (Actual Lyrics)

Before you know it:

An atomic explosion mushroom cloud the size of an atom but the size of Manhattan at the same time, blew up in his face, disentigrating, reassembling his molecules to red ash. The cloud curled, yellows, oranges, and reds, turning the grass brown and setting the sky on fire. The cloud fizzled out into the air, and when the dust settled, the spaceship was still climbing. The spaceship flew up and up, pieces left behind, the skeleton of the pod floating up still, with the ash inside. And the red ash turned to blue, and then to green, glowing almost. No one witnessed this scene, this color changing scheme scene. A tear grew out of this green ash, a gleaming blue ocean raindrop tear. Reaching its tipping point in the ionosphere, almost reaching the outskirts of our orbit, pod crashing back down to Earth. Further... and further... and further... until it reached our troposphere, dropping further, landing as it launched on the pad. The green ash then grew, filling the pod and exploding the pod in another mushroom cloud. The ash hung in the air, the crowd appalled at what they saw. "I saw Heaven." Then blowing off in the wind, filling the air with glowing green ash. The crowd remained silent.


The power of words can make a tragic scene beautiful.
