Did You Know?


 

Extraterrestrials are playing with us.

We have become a petri dish

a giant experiment

a source of entertainment

for aliens who know all about us

and fail to be convinced 

we are to be regarded as a serious

contender in the universal scheme

of planetary civilizations. Our raw

evolutionary existence

so recent in comparison to theirs

fascinates and bewilders them

having detected within us definite

signs of cerebral function

they devise obstacles then observe

how humanity manages 

or fails to

surmount them. Just visiting

these peripatetic beings take 

copious notes leading to conclusions

and in Earth's inhabitants' instance

their notebooks remain blank.
