I saw a meteor shower last night
bright fireballs tumbling low in the sky
it was an awesome sight to behold
the Perseus meteor shower is an annual event
remnants of and old comet hurling chunks of rocks at the earth
like kids throwing pebbles into a lake
scientists say we get 17,000 meteorites a year
that’s a lot of space dust added to all the rocks we already have on earth
the earth is steadily getting fatter day by day
time to put our planet on a diet and exercise plan
otherwise we will spin out of control
a program of rock carrying rocket launches is needed
hurling some of our rocks back into space
like the lake throwing pebbles back towards those kids
its the only way to achieve net zero in stabilizing the mass of our planet
