Today an alien came to my door
He asked why I didn't answer before?
I asked which planet was he from?
He said it was something to do with his Mom
She passed and now was up in ths sky
No reason, the other aliens let her die
I said there was nothing to do
Perhaps he could ask for shelter at the zoo?
He said I know that your kind can be good
Is there any way I could spare some food?
I said that English cuisine might not be to his palette
He said that it was probably better than on his planet
Could you not go back to the ship?
He said no, this is the end of the trip
Can't you fly back into the sky?
If I leave I will die
Which planet are you from?
He said with mirth....earth
I choked again..
His name is ...Ben
So, if an alien knocks at your door
Please help him to get some more
Don't assume what you see
Is something ex-planetary

Don't assume that someone comes to your door is an alien from another planet they may need your help.
