• The Visitors came just before dawn.
    All black and green and skeleton drawn.
    They came in ships that numbered the stars.
    Far beyond the sight of Mars.
    With eyes so shallow and black,
    Are they here for our attack?
    Are they seeing how we live?
    Do they have something to give?
    Are they here to conduct a test,
    To see which one of us is the best?
    Are they going to watch us work and play?
    Or are they coming here to stay?
    All I know is they're here on my lawn,
    The Visitors that came just before dawn.
