Scourge of the galaxy,
Yet as small as a moon,
Strikes fear in every heart.
Great big starship,
Destroyed by one so little,
Because of one small flaw,
A tiny hole.
Weapon of the Emperor,
Weapon of the Sith,
Destroyer of homeworlds,
A gigantic Superlaser.
Built by a Massive Empire,
Destroyed by a small group of Rebels.
Floating around Yavin,
Orbiting Endor.
What small station could cause so much fear?
Death Star.
A name no longer mentioned,
But a name held in all memories,
A name still yet feared.
Author notes
My favorite Star Wars quote? One about the Death Star would be: "Fear will keep the local systems in line. Fear of this battle station." -Grand Moff Tarkin
I also like: "Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid..." -Han Solo
One more: "Your father's lightsaber. This is the weapon of a Jedi Knight. Not as clumsy or as random as a blaster. An elegant weapon from a more civilized age..." -Obi Wan Kenobi
Lightsaber=cool!!
