No one would have believed
in the last years of the nineteenth century
that this world was being watched
keenly and closely
by intelligences greater than man?s
and yet as mortal as his own;
that as men busied themselves
about they're various concerns,
they were scrutinised and studied,
perhaps almost as narrowly
as a man with a microscope
might scrutinise the transient creatures
that swarm and multiply in a drop of water.
With infinite complacency,
men went to and fro over this globe
about they're little affairs,
serene in they're assurances
of they're empire over matter.
It is possible that the infusoria
under the microscope do the same.
No one gave a thought
to the older worlds of space
as sources of human danger,
or thought of them only
to dismiss the idea of life upon them
as impossible or improbable.
It is curious to recall
some of the mental habits
of those departed days.
At most, terrestrial men fancied
their might be other men upon Mars,
perhaps inferior to themselves
and ready to welcome a missionary enterprise.
Yet across the gulf of space,
minds that are to our minds
as ours are to those of the beasts that perish,
intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic,
regarded this Earth with envious eyes,
and slowly and surely drew they're plans against us.
Hurf blurf.
