Insight Blasts Off


Miraculously, it landed unharmed
after many months, many miles, surviving
a descent through a fiery ball.
Our little robot will drill and drill,
sensing heat and Martian vibrations,
if only we could have sent Corey and Donald
along for the ride, their tears staining their faces
as Washington, D.C. receded into the distance,
aware that they would be the last to 
seek scientific truth.
