Generational Ship
A trip to save humanity, five syllables at a time

Generational Ship


A trip into space
Could freeze us solid
because it’s vacuum

Distant voices speak
From where we started
Expecting reply

Going somewhere far
In a light speed craft
Must save our species

Jarring dreams plague us
Like hibernating
Dead or sleeping crew

Relativistic
Travel aged our past
Long since turned to dust

Reanimating
Hope for the new world
Humanity lives
