The Important Things In Life

The cry rings out, "Man will go to Mars!"
   But who will heal my last affair's scars?
Soon man will return to the moon
   Yet will I find true love this June?

We can now make meatless burgers so tasty
   Can I for once not commit to a nebbish so hasty?
We've created artificial intelligence and life
   Will a good man see in me a good wife?

Written either by my wife or by the 49.9% of me that's feminine. I get confused sometimes... :)
