Mars, One Each

by Steven Francis Murphy

Mars, One Each
Rust Red In Color
Home of Human Dreams
Land of No One

No Canals
No Green Men
Nor Ruined Cities
And Dandelion Wine

Our Dreams To Dust
In Reality’s Fit
No One Is Home
No Native Claim Laid

Mars, Capped in Ice
She Beckons
Our Rocket Powered
Fertilization

Humans Beware!
