It has been thirty-five years since the Battle of Endor,
And the destruction of the second Death Star.
In an unusual period of peace under the New Republic,
The galaxy turns to hi-tech sports and entertainment.
Failing to find suitable students for a new order of Jedi knights,
Luke Skywalker agrees to host “So You Think You’re a Jedi”.
The show is holobroadcast from the swamps of Dagobah,
Where contestants attempt to survive and lift rocks with the force.
Thousands of out-of-work stormtroopers form new sports,
Hoth-Tauntaun Ice-Polo, AT-AT Racing and Thermal Detonator Toss.
The gala wedding of Han Solo and Princess Leia Organa,
Is all the rage on the holoscreens of Coruscant.
Unfortunately crime is rampant on the city planet,
Without a war to vent citizen aggression, spice gangsters rule.
Lando Calrissian is voted Commissioner of the J.E.D.I-
The Justice, Equality and Decency Initiative.
But Landos’ J.E.D.I are not taken seriously,
And gangster lord Skinnee the Hutt rules the economy.
Meanwhile a mysterious new mystical enemy appears,
The young hooded Ansol gathers followers in his cult.
Proclaiming powers that balance the dark and light side,
Ansol warns the galaxy that technology has brought all their horrors.
It was the technology of droids and cloning that caused the clone war,
And the Death Stars caused the atrocities of the Empire.
Crashing the royal wedding of Han and Leia,
Ansol captures the Princess and all the refugees of Alderaan.
