Homo Sapiens In Earth To Homo Martians In Mars

*****sapiens in earth to *****Martians in mars Helios’ children craved But only Gaia had life in her fate engraved With waters lashing oceans and tides And lushy green lands to live by the sides Her children were the Sapiens Who ruled the world with radiance Living in mutualism with animals and aves Beastly to an extent and digging their graves Formatting world’s treasures Polluting her breasts, waists and Aether Stealing future dreams and childhood Filling the unhealed lacuna with word brood Ares, the son had to step up To invite spaceships and satellites to diagnose his hub Scientists fiddled to this symphony Sapiens skipped beats to this cacophony *****sapiens in earth become *****Martians in mars If living in underground is your choice If you prefer to forget to rejoice Like to live in quarantine research stations? Then mars is your place – CONGRATULATIONS Gaia had oxygen, mars has carbon dioxide She had homes; he has catacombs missin’ the hydride Her body was warm; his made your teeth titter She preferred vibrant, active dynamicity He prefers dull, gay less, lazy mutagenity In earth you could ‘Tinder’ you In mars you need to camouflage you With no gravity to bring your ball back With dismal depressing sights – yuck! Red red everywhere every place to stink Forget colours of normal life- think twice to wink Obliviating smells of pizza and petrichor Sniffing alcohol, choking smog , protein is all that it has senhorr! Birdy tweets, rustling leaves, playing children Become fragments of your history –Amen With no thunders to rumble and tummies to grumble “Silencio” of Dumbledore is all that you have to stumble Every day goes a struggle Everyone will be an abysmal muggle Every year marks death’s chuckle Every night your prayers tumble Regretting your ego with Gaia’s Scuffle Eating fresh will be days of nostalgia Recycling to eat will be your greatest phobia She sheltered you from radiations She gave you everything without donations If you don’t mind seeing the sunlight If you prefer carrying oxygen tanks upright Then mars is your place sit tight Elon musk dreams and Apollo screams To stop the welcoming grin of his sibling Mars is a tough choice with Gaia sizzling Save her or embrace his clutches You need to mutate my friend, when mars touches Mars isn’t cheap and you need a leap I think you don’t need “An alien hand” or “Surviving mars” to show you how Protect her or shatter your dreams and future my love
