The rockets soar,
To Martian skies,
But fins they need,
To minimize demise.
Two ships took flight,
Then met their doom,
On fiery paths,
Consigned to gloom.
An old man loves,
A digital ghost,
A phantom's call,
A fatal post.
The spiders creep,
From ages past,
A primal fear,
Designed to last.
The political stage,
With fiery words,
A nation's discourse,
Like restless birds.
The laws of code,
The systems built,
A digital realm,
On silicon gilt.
