"You should have seen the world before it died,"
repeated the tablet, the script aglow.
"Shame.......anyhow, that Trilogy aside,
for millions of years' lease and hyper show,
but touch less cost than a terra firma,
consider planets with multiple rings -
the perfect theatrical arena,
for compendiums of perverse meetings.
Picture the panoramic over-views,
the circuit of thrills and spills - the holy,
v unholy v chimeric to-dos.......
the drama, c'est magnifique! Certainly,
lifetimes to lifetimes folly guaranteed.
Hear I, O High Majesties your stampede?"

If sonnet does not read with the first line quoted, it will be dsq.
But sorry no smiley face; however my angle of approach may raise the smile?

It's as if you provoke the apocalypse,
