OUTSIDER'S PERSPECTIVE

OUTSIDER'S PERSPECTIVE

A Poem by shan337

As I write this,I'm watching you people
From my home planet Strafius 251 B
We've successfully monitored your progress
For your planet's five hundred years
I've personally marveled at your achievements
Though not many from my world will concur
I've seen your enlightenment and the triumph of reason
I've seen you transform your lives radically
Without leaving your core values behind
We here celebrated your baby steps out into the space
We love your arts,literature and the enchanting music
But if there's one thing that troubles our minds here
Is the lack of trust and a feeling of oneness amongst you
You feel no remorse in depriving your very species of life
And you were not kind enough with your home either
Just look at the mess you've created
Poisonous air to breath and pathetic water to drink
And we've laughed many a time
At your weird notions of so-called Heaven and Hell
Why don't you feel content at your home planet
It's so beautiful,we probably love her more than you do
We were so afraid we would never find life nearby
We were so eager to come meet you as soon as we spotted Earth
But you guys seem so lost in your wars,secret missions and your God
That's why we've decided to wait until the day
There's not a single conflict and you bury your guns forever
For now though,I'm going to see my friend
And spend the evening telling him stories from Earth
