"the tripods have a cockpit
in the shape of a beak
the cockpit have a window
the window is big letting the man
have a good view
their legs start out thin
but as they get to the buttom
they become thick like the machine
wears big metallic boots
between the legs there is a metallic arm
with what's look like a human hand
the arm is holding a laser canon
this canon is the size of healthy 30 year old male"

that was made by the martian people
during the martian independence war
and it became a very well known tool
