| 6 | The moon is gone and in its place a mirror. Looking at the night sky now | ||
| 7 | yields nothing but the viewer's own face as viewed from a million miles, | ||
| 8 | surrounded by the landscape he is only vaguely aware of being surrounded | ||
| 9 | by. He believes that he is alone, surrounded by desert and mountain, but | ||
| 10 | behind him---he now sees it---someone is sneaking up on him. He spins around | ||
| 11 | fast, but no one is there on Earth. He looks back up and they are yet | ||
| 12 | closer in the night sky. Again he looks over his shoulder but there is | ||
| 13 | nothing, not even a desert mouse. As he looks up again he realizes it's | ||
| 14 | a cloud above him, which due to optics has looked like someone else. The | ||
| 15 | cloud blocks out the moon which is now a mirror, and the viewer is | ||
| 16 | completely alone. | ||
