April -- NaPoWriMo 2023 Day 20 -- a Poem that Garbage Tells
   Garbology from Afar 
Garbologists no longer 
are holding their noses 
so keep those clothespins 
for the museums 
Technology and archeology 
sciences have emerged to 
change garbologists way of 
obtaining humanity's past 
Predictions are now 
showing that the earth will 
end by one large snuff 
Like snuffing a candle one 
large pinch will come 
in our lifetime 
It will drop from the sky into 
one deep and smelly abyss 
like one crumb falls from the 
cracker 
Never to be found, as the 
crumb waiting for a 
South American ant
When that ant, larger than 
the world's largest creature, 
will swallow it with one large 
gulp

I did read that it was falling this week. Beware of what falls from the sky it just might make you cry little one.
We're creating lots of space junk now, too. That's never a good thing!
Blown to smithereens, as they say! I hope it doesn't happen anytime soon!
Well done.
Space junk is something nobody ever thinks about but a reality nonetheless. I love the idea of the Earth no ending with a bang ‘one large snuff’ and a crumb swallowed by a giant ant! I can believe it!
I think we are for some, just garbage... it just a matter of viewpoint
