In the movie,
this would be the point where the starship arrives
changing the course of events
saving us from ourselves,
saving Earth, saving humankind
Our movie runs in a continuous loop,
conflict after conflict,
guns, bombs, and hate,
attacking the other
we watch it unfold,
let it happen,
forgetting that people who are ignorant, hungry, afraid
listen to the demagogues,
we wait for the starship to arrive
for the hero to appear,
but this is an interactive experience
the storyline only continues
if we change it,
write the words,
name the evil,
expose it,
lead the hope,
feed the starving
heal the sick
teach the words of love,
look for the helpers,
become one and gather others
become the heroes
before it’s too late
