The billionaires are at it again.
This one's going to Mars.
This one's murdering for profit.
And this one's going
         out his damn mind.
What else is there to do
when you don't want to be
of use to anyone?
Five boarded a submarine,
built MacGyver-style
out of chewing gum,
banana peels,
and baby chick nests.
Operated by a video game controller,
the yellow-themed vessel
set off in search of
artifacts from a larger failure,
a much bigger nautical disaster.
An hour and a half later
terms like "we lost communication",
"maritime incident", and
"which one will we eat first"
were being thrown around,
much to the chagrin
of all involved in
         the mission.
Yellow can mean many things;
on that day it stood for
         implosion,
and they all went to heaven
in a yellow submarine.
