Poems
Jan 2022
TO A RECENT ASTEROID
A really big-*** asteroid
whizzed by us pretty close
came within a million miles
of turning us to toast
Journey of one million miles
Can't get there by car
But if you count by astro-miles
That ain't so very far.
Two-thirds of a mile in size
was that big hunk of rock
enough to turn old New York City
Into a parking lot
So let us all be very glad
It's sailed on out in space
And if the **** thing finally hits
it's in some other place
But there're much bigger rocks out there
Mere thought gives me the jitters
If one of them slams in to us
We'll all be crispy critters.
