    *Shudders* Oh no! What's going wrong with the Mars skyscraper-tower boo-wah facility? This wasn't bad as a prologue. It presented a conflict and something that is going horribly wrong. It ...

    Aww... was kind of sad. I liked it though, it made me think. It's like one of those, "Yay-neigh" rhymes. Actually, if you reworked it as a poem, it might ...
