Didn't have enough worries
and now a big ball
has a chance to hit the earth!

Where do they prognosticate
this massive rock fall?
Three continents it might grace :(

NASA plans to "redirect"
with a game of pool...
way up high in the big sky!

But there is a big question:
According to "CLASH,"
Should I stay or should I go?

Well written! I'm leaning on the Almighty either way! Lol
great song
Well-wrought! Not sure many of us have an option as to the going, unless it's going underground. But eight years from now, who knows? Catapult us into outerspace in custom tailored AI suits that we can all just sort of float around in, or live on a big spaceship together, or colonize Mars? Who knows? Gaia is probably pretty sick of us by now, so I doubt she'd much mind if we departed!
Thanks fot the warning 😁
Love that song!!! Super social commentary!!!❤️❤️💕
Am I the only one who wants it to hit us? Lol. Loved your poem!
Great song but yikes!! I didn’t have that on my doomsday bingo card!! 😬
This is both funny and a little scary! 😅 I guess we just have to trust NASA’s “pool game” and hope for the best.
That's a tricky situation to be in, fingers crossed you can stay!
Scary stuff, Shirley! Hopefully it does not come to answering Clash’s musical question. Loved your poem!
Oh boy, that’s a scary thought! Let’s hope NASA is successful in their job. Great set of limericks.
Nice work . Please check my stories out as well if you get a chance.
Love the poem, But that song is a classic! I'll have it in my head all day!
Off to Mars?
