how about we travel to Mars to see the Stars from a view different than Ours.
we could waft in Place, as we travel in Space, to smell the rank of aliens.
the tribe man Speaks in Weeks before we part our beloved planet,
he Warns, but rather Scorns, predicting the danger ahead.
we Leave, better Believe, despite the threats behind.
‘goodbye’ World, as we Swirled above land.
the Black soon Lacked, burning red,
we Viewed and Spewed flames.
no Stars Are as beautiful.
like That Tomcat,
Who Knew,
blood, .


The author's comments:

This piece is written as an ode to both the fantasic work of my favorite author, Mr. Kurt Vonnegut, and its a playful piece about very real situations we, as humans, have to work through without heeding the warning of those with a lot more wisdom than we have. In addition, it is another work in my journey to odd syntax and unconventional formatting.
