Kill them with light, but only
Ultraviolet

AND

Kirk lost his brother,
Sister-in-law and Spock lost
His sight for awhile

AND

Identify them:
Neural parasites look like
Petrified vomit

Can’t we all just get along?
I’d like mine seared, thanks

OR

That thing killed fifty
Giant month-old pizza roll
McCoy can lay bricks

Blow you up in their fake war
Give them the real thing

Their bombs do not kill
The Enterprise can not blow
The greater good, lost

Why do they wear bolo ties?
Oh, you’re a machine

First of many in which Kirk
Talks machine to death
