Year: 3010
Location: Unknown
It's been quiet all night the silence is nerve wracking,
The strange scenes in a desolate landscape I'm reserved; tracking.
Every follicle, molecule is a possible obstacle
to deciphering the code of their biological chronicle.
I see nothing is logical when I'm on an alien planet,
Been abandoned since I landed on this radium; granite.
I dont know if i can stand it, I'm starting to panic
while the sun rises in the north; the climate's erratic.
Ice melting rapidly turning the surface aquatic,
My ship is going to sink! The whole galaxy's despotic!
I realize I'm the alien in this place that God forgot,
But if i die now, my experiment's all for nought.
I often sought to learn from my lonesome trips to space,
But in my last attempt i could vanish without a trace.
I'm just a scientist, astronomer, with many dreams to chase
trying to improve the future for the entire human race...
I feel my rocket tremble, I'm going to die for sure!
As the ice gives way my vision fades to lights and blurs.
Suddenly I'm ascending to the heavens
(much like I'd prefer)
And all becomes calm as my attention is deferred.
My ship disipates and leaves me floating in a room,
that feels like a labratory and smells of gas and fumes.
Slowly creatures enter with their faces masked in rheum,
They look like newborn babies that had just escaped the womb.
Silently they gesture me to lay upon a table,
surrounded by what looks to be medical contraptions and cables.
As i approach it they rapidly strap me down to it tight,
And i realize I'm the subject of disecction tonight!
I always assumed being human i was an improbable prey,
till they started ripping flesh from bone in such impossible ways
The pain was surreal and my screams grew absent
I just laid there undistracted as my emotions ran rampant.
With no anesthetic I was focused on every move that they made,
and i simply longed for it to stop, or my conscious to fade.
I left Earth to find a new home as the population grew larger,
but instead of returning a hero I would die as a martyr!
Unknown to my family I had become what I always chased
a sacrifice to science; an experiement in space.
