A Meteor, Right? (Science Poem?) Poem by Chuck Audette
A Meteor, Right? (Science Poem?)
if you look up at the sky's dark shore
and see the flash of a meteor,
and instead of fading, it seems more bright
you might soon be dead from a meteorite!
And if by chance, you're scientifically inclined, A telescope, binoculars Will magnify the jocular Results. Reality betrays the popular, Albeit, nerdish cosmic fascinations, And all those brain-stem machinations, With retinae detached, I'm blind.
On 11-03 I wrote 'Like Shooting Stars.' Today I read this by you. Are we psychic, psycho or what. You don't have to hit me in the head before I see the light.
Cute, Chuck! I won't be viewing any stars for a long time; you never know. Well done with excellent wit as always! Christmas wishes, Beth
Good! ! ! I love science poems. Check out some of mine on my poem list!
Very funny, great stuff. My good Sir, you underestimate me as one smart fella Because I have a good umbrella.
Comic genius! LOVE it! I've got to read some more of your work! Glad i started on this one - hilarious!
You are making me laugh! although I believe death by meteor is no laughing matter!

I like your comment on 'Stellar Matter' much better than Mark Fry's. And speaking of getting 'fry'ed, here is my poetic response to your response to my poem. Out of the stars, blazing the night, falls Charles Audette’s “A Meteor, Right? ” I’m smoking—carbonized! —or worse struck dumb by this flaming lump of verse!
