Something different today, a look as Isaac Asimov's Foundation, and the fall of the first Galactic Empire, whose Imperial Capital was the planet Trantor...
Trantor Falls
Bold strode Gilmer through the door
The Imperial Palace, captured today
The tread of boots on carpet floor
Those captured watching with dismay
A Galactic Empire in ruins lay
The final fall, the Emperor fled
Gilmer came, to take and stay
As firestorm raged, people bled
Death came to Trantor ever swift
And Emperor Dagobert fled away
Space ships hiding in Galactic rift
And dreaming of return one day
The Great Sack over, Trantor falls
The Palace is burning, as night falls
Trantor Falls

And dreaming of return one day
The Great Sack over, Trantor falls
The Palace is burning, as night falls
