New Species Wanted

I think after all grace fails – man not, in time, making it far enough out~ too late bails to a fresh planet uninhabited, much like ours before consuming and mating, as if a vibrant garden could not be overly rabbited (you know, what I mean~ after the big one dropped or some miraculous vaccine has totally flopped) yet, somehow, some way, in a twisted sort of divine display, pigeons, rats and roaches, will be the Big Blue Marble's, by default, newly ordained goodwill ambassadors and spiritual coaches – (a banner hung in near space inviting alien visitors -- unfortunately too late arriving to be humanity's saving inquisitors -- “To Thee we will pay homage, another eclectic, semi-intelligent species needed – bring lots of garbage....”)

Bring lots of garbage...that is quite possibly Key as we seem weak to its hypnotic pull Already, its not only physically created by Us but also its spoken out by a lot of us.' All the best.'

God gave humanity a Gem spirit...and we settle for garbage. Addicted to garbage. Joe, if there are visitors from different planets, already amongst us, living here on earth, far more technically advanced than humanity can presently even begin to imagine, it would not get in the way with my firm belief and faith in Christ. Christ is my indwelling spirit: He has already proven to me our relationship a billion times over. His spiritual refrain will linger in my heart for all eternity.

Nothing wrong with optimism. Creates less wrinkles. Blessings my friend!

There is still hope for us, yet there is a lot of hard work to do. I am an eternal optimist, too. Blessings.

Well, here in the US we are failing miserably~ inner cities plagued with lawlessness and violence, with a soulless government that promotes chaos and division -- I see it in, so called public messages on PBS, in PBS programs, always little barbs to keep people angry and fighting -- keep people fearful of one another and divided -- Very sick and twisted bunch we have allowed to take power in this nation~ and they can no longer be voted out. My uneducated opinion of course. No proof.

Not sure that we have learned enough living on this planet, to make a go of it with a fresh start on another, I bet guns and weapons for destruction, would be the first things packed for the move. Your poem is alarmingly real Joe. I pondered the consequences for quite a while after reading it. Its kinda scary.

Earth rapidly moving toward 500 years of dreaded darkness, ruled by godless evil. According to what I see, and have been taught. I pray that we are wrong. Blessings my friend!

I would settle for a start, if my neighbors would just get along:) -- but I am the eternal optimist, hoping for an enlightened earth. Blessings my friend.
