Robots Keep Landing

dust devils swirling
from ground to the sky
robots keep landing
and we don't know why

from Earth they have left
on Mars to be found
where pyramids have crumbled
now we live underground...

traveling the surface
on a cold Martian day
to reprogram robots
in what they relay

Earth is a mystery
Earth beings we fear
are unaware that Martians have
always been here...

Deimos and Phobos
move overhead
keeping track of approaching
things that we dread

signals when sent
from probes back to Earth
are rearranged to appear
there's nothing of worth...

pyramids have crumbled
we live underground
robots keep landing
still us the've not found

Earth is a mystery
Earth beings we fear
cannot be trusted
whenever they're near...
