Wally, Don’t go to the Light!!!

Obviously it’s gonna be some kind of Old one’s eye or something.

And here I thought it was a bad moon on the rise!

Ah, a little light humor.

I guess it’s time to lighten things up for a bit…….Masefield….”And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by…”

What light through yonder continuum breaks?

It is the South Star by which we set our course

Our Destiny to seize by main force

Which is appropriate because things are "going south "pretty much everywhere!

I’ve just realized… Wally’s shirt badge is a so-called ‘radiation’ indicator which turned dark… a darkened circle. And the topsider symbols are a dark triangle containing a bright, unblemished circle.

Just like an engineer, give it to me straight, word play is for politicians and otherswwho want to hide the truth.

If it’s a problem, Wally, just wave it off.

Second star to the left and on on til morning

A body of light has brought out the poets.

It’s either another ship, or it could be a kind of lighthouse.

Well, if Wally really doesn’t want to go, I would think the dittos would think of a way to keep from going towards if, if they could.

He said he hates it, but add an “s” in front and I bet Wally would swashbuckle with the best of them.

Wordplay is forbidden. Violators will be severly pun-ished.
