Once we were Numb

Seasonal flows are flowing
in sequence to a seasonal
warmth
A satellite hoovers like
a distant cloud
in an atmosphere which is neither
might not support
or which has not been seen in many days
microbial species within the salty brines of
Jezero's Crater
talks of yesterdays
the only planet in the solar
system to be inhabited by
robots
facting and gathering
while scientist do there part
Parts per million
the itchy hands of
prospectors
found Hematite
to awaken the greed of man
the desire to extract and own
makes rocket maker say
yes we can
they consort and collaborate
to create a suitible
place to exsist
Mars the planet closet
in size
there might be large
Gold feilds
