I was asked if I believe in aliens, in UFOs
It is clear to me that there is life out there
But does it visit Earth, a tiny blue planet
Its bizarre to think it would, who knows?
Why would it spend the energy, why care?
It'd require cost, labor, time, to just plan it
Unless they know something that we don't
Is Earth special, an oasis in a space desert
Has life here evolved with such great effort
As the surrounding space paid attention
Watching us move from savage fools
To become beings of higher thought
Of dreams created, and empires wrought
