Mars Squared Equals Earth: An Essay

Irrigation is a better way to farm and landscape the planet. This is how Eden was described. Oceans and mountains are the causative factors in many of the problems we face on earth due to natural calamities. One should not underestimate how environmental adversity leads to adverse social behavior.

A brief outline of how the ocean could be drained and the mountains leveled is at the core of this work. Objections are brushed aside. the work ends with the following poem:

The cruel and deadly and deceptive seas
Those who love you love death and deception
He plies the seas best who hates her with ease
Her freedom the haven of crimes that shun
The light of day in the courts of justice
Divider of men, destroyer of peace
Pirates ply her ways and whores ply malice
Cloaked in pleasures of the harbor sans cease
Leave us now poison well of fountains deep
Drowner of joy and the mother of grief
From your cruel deep abode let our souls keep
That from your demise will be our relief
