Red Planet

The ship hovers high in the darkness of space,

The red planet Mars lies below.

Helldivers ready, prepared to drop,

Time's come to put on a show.

…

The stars are all shining, perpetual light,

In the stillness, perpetual too.

Broken by objects heading to ground,

Determined to see battle through.

…

Nearer to death as they drop through the fire,

Nearer to rock, and nearer to foe.

But deployment's begun, no stopping now,

The red planet beckons, it's the place to go.
