Shooting for the stars.
.
What would aliens think of Planet Earth today?
.
Let's say they mosey down from some far off land, brimming with curiosity.
.
What would they think of the injustices and violence we commit against each other? What would they think of the diseases that run rampant without regulation? What would they think of the "leaders" of our world often corrupt? What would they think about our fight for money often laden with sweat, tears, and blood? What would they think of the little black screens we fall into as if toppling into a void, hour after hour only to emerge more jaded and often more bitter than when we went in? What would they think of our dying planet, it's ice caps melting into the oceans as we carelessly use her until she is all but nothing?
.
Would they look at us with disappointment? Would they look at us with sympathy? Would they try to understand our frivolous human rat races?
.
Would they see systems ripe for change while we humans often can only see what is in our peripheral vision?
.
This planet could use some Extraterrestrial intervention.
.
Not to start over, but to right so many wrongs.
