Derelict

Abandoned near atlas

The second moon of Saturn

Now sets a forlorn hulk, a ghost

Its ancient luster lost so long ago

This burnt out behemoth cast adrift

Dreams lived forever ...in heroic daze

A magnificent vessel in its prime

A hunter-killer of all in its path

A ship so stylishly designed

Lavishly fitted for its time

A casualty of conflicts

Beyond this planet

On faraway lands

Before it met its match

Beneath twin now decaying towers

Hidden well in Saturn’s rings of debris

Which sought out with deadly fire ...its foe

With planned precision the blows delivered

Destiny closed in and killing fields were plowed

Sealed by its fate ...its crew fought desperately

Swiftly recovered, but too late ...died valiantly

Delivered in a fiery death ...to their icy graves

Just as the ancient warriors ...once did  

Beneath earths ...restless seas

Some things never change

We fight …and die
