Your fun and well rhymed verse tells a good story.
It might well be what aliens would think of us, should they ever come here.
Well done. Thank you for sharing this fun piece.

This is a very intriguing and inquisitive poem. I like how you have used the aliens to tell the story and ask the questions about our planet. I wonder too if we have yet to learn even more about our universe...

I am reminded of an old, old Twilight Zone episode in which aliens land on earth and seem to be there to share their more advanced life, eager to help we earthlings. We earthlings eventually begin accepting the wonderful opportunity to travel via their advanced spaceship to their superior planet. They leave a book with us called "To Serve Man"--it isn't until the first ship load of passengers are well into space that they discover "To Serve Man"...was a cookbook!

This is a pretty good depiction of what aliens would probably think of our planet. I think that you sum it up with your words--why do you make things worse. You show the arrogance and selfishness of earthlings. Great job.

Some interesting questions aliens might ask are pointed out in your poem.
Perhaps too many in one poem?
How about trying a collection of poems about what aliens ask?
Just a thought.
Thanks for sharing.

This is an awesome poem. I love anything to do with extraterrestrial beings. I've never understood how we as humans could be so arrogant to think that we are the only Spiritual Beings in the world.. it makes no sense to me and we have so much proof out there that there is life beyond this planet. I love the type of questions that you raise that the aliens might ask us. Because if I were an alien I'd be asking the same questions!

Well considering what goes along today as "world leaders", I bet these aliens are going to run away all by themselves. There's only so much stupidity an intelligent being can take.

We're more advanced than you, it's true
We've been on every planet in your galaxy
While you are only beginning to study Mars,
We have touched on the billions of stars

We come from the next universe,
Why on your planet do you make things worse?
Please accept us, we want to pleasantly converse
