Group C - Venus and the Ark

Interesting to know that she was depressed. This may shed light on the underlying theme of war and dystopia that seemed to be alluded to happening on Earth prior to the "ark". In the poem she talks about how two men were picked for the mission and sent to Venus. I think she picked two men because she didn't feel (in the poem that is) that humans were necessarily "good" for a planet. Thus by picking two men evolution would take its course without humans there to ruin the planet as they did with the now cratered Earth. Furthermore she points out the fact that it is the "las[t] of men" in the ending stanza.
