Good poem I just got in my e-mail.

[Archae]

Enjoy, all!

"Space, the final frontier,"
how the phrase had filled our ear,
with hope of future, oh so bright,
in ventures out into the night.

It started with a Cage of mind,
where if nothing else but to unwind.
And kept on going to find alive
new worlds new peoples up to the five.

We came to love that crew so grand
so brave so strong so compassionately manned.
There was a gap too soon to be seen
it then appeared on the big screen.

The stories were so bold and new
they paved the way for the next crew.
The voyages they continue,
they go so far, they meet the Q.

Just when we thought it would unwind,
we're then taken to Deep Space Nine.
Where one can span the gamma quadrant
and see new things, learn more abundant.

Just when we could not learn much more,
we get hurled to quadrant four.
At maximum warp we try to flee
since years it takes is seventy.

Things wax and wane and nerves are grating,
Since low return the Nielson's Rating.
They try real hard to bring us heaven,
to score real high they bring on Seven.

To make matters worse we have vivisection
when bad gets worse: an Insurrection.
Throw good money after bad this is,
when of fans they make a Nemesis.

To bring a ray of hope to our eyes
they bring in an old Enterprise.
But things really start to flame
when prequel it is only by name.

Technology being what it is
it seems to be from a future wiz.
The ship looks like the greener grass
resembling the Akira class.

Just when Emmy winner gets so good
the two B's must have misunderstood.
Cuz last time a show was cancelled less
was beloved Star Trek TOS!
