UNTITLED
Challenger, I watched you
As you first invaded space
And you flew over me one morn
To return to your home base.
You went back out again
Different people in control
Though you were just a machine
You'd helped man reach his goal.
We will probably never know
Why you said you were done -
But why did you have to take
The lives of those brave seven?
You made yourself immortal
With those you held inside
To those who knew your "soul"
To those below who cried.
You did yourself so proud
With your triumph over space
But with your last attempt
You caused so many a sad face.
"Don't Challenge 'Er.", I said
The first time around -
But for these final words
There's no title to be found.
