"The People of Mars ...

Look at it this way...
Percival Lowell saw canals on Mars a long time ago
.... and drew detailed pictures of them.

A few years later
.... no one saw any canals any more.

Maybe, just maybe, there really are Martians,
And what we see on Mars as a dry, barren planet
Is only an illusion.

Maybe the Martians knew that Lowell
Was seeing them,

And were afraid humans would hurry on
Over and bring their wares with earthen them.

So they evolved High Mass to protect them.
So they painted vivid colorful hallucinations
....which all humans experience when they look at Mars

.... up close
Or from far very away, or

Through the eyes of Miro painting a Dog
Dancing with the Moon outside

The Mars Bar."
