Technology Sonnets 14,15

14. The Mars Rover
A lonely traveler on a rusted plain,
It treads the dust of ancient, dried-up seas.
It feels no wind and fears no drop of rain,
But searches for the cosmic mysteries.
Its eyes are cameras focused on the red,
To find the traces of a hidden past.
Where water flowed and where the life was fed,
Before the silence of the void was cast.
A million miles from the hands that built,
Its steady heart of plutonium glows.
It bears no burden of a human guilt,
As through the desert of the stars it goes.
Our metal scout upon a foreign shore,
The key that opens up the final door.
15. The Encryption Key
A wall of numbers, vast and mountain high,
To guard the secrets of a private heart.
Beneath the gaze of every prying eye,
It pulls the world and logic far apart.
The prime is mated to its distant twin,
To lock the gate against the clever thief.
No way for chaos to come rushing in,
To bring the silent, digital soul to grief.
But keys are hunted by the quantum ghost,
That walks through walls as if they were but air.
The very thing we rely on the most,
May leave our secrets naked, stripped, and bare.
The war is waged in every bit and byte,
To keep our shadows hidden from the light.
