Neighbors

SETI says there might be life out there

The Earthling points a finger up in that direction

The cosmos is only minutes away from everywhere

Neighbors wait for a cup of sugar or a wave

Perhaps a radio wave would do

95 light years is really not all that far away

Try not to use the car as there are no roads

The tires are bald and insurance has expired

65 billion years ago their sun evolved

Our neighbors can wait a little longer for a signal

Do they count on 6 fingers or tentacles or circuits?

We have a sense they do not pray

ET does not go to church on Sundays

Simply because Sundays are too far away from them

Most aliens don't speak English

We'll have to follow along on radio waves

To see what they do next

ET please be brave

We are on our way
