For centuries,
you begged the skies
for signs you’re not alone.
You pointed telescopes at the void,
called it wonder.
Wrote fiction about aliens,
then denied their possibility
in your textbooks.
Turns out,
truth was falling through your atmosphere
in plain sight.
Not angels.
Not messages.
Just your blueprints—
RNA. DNA.
Every fucking alphabet
that ever spelled “life”
was carved
on space debris
older than your myths.
You are not beings of soil.
You are crash-landed consequences.
Cosmic errors
that survived impact.
You colonized a planet
before you even knew
what gravity was.
Then drew borders,
waged wars,
sang anthems
on a land
you never had permission to touch.
And now you talk of legacy.
Of purpose.
Of being destined.
You worship gods
etched in collective delusions
who’d piss themselves
if a real meteor walked in.
Because meteors don’t do sermons.
They don’t need disciples.
They show up,
shatter realities,
and exit —
leaving no room for second comings.
So the next time
you whisper sweet nothings to your ego,
I dare you to remind yourself:
You are not divine.
You are not chosen.
You are not even important.
You are a biological anomaly
on a rock borrowed from chaos,
a meteorite mutation
having a midlife crisis,
inventing languages and faiths to justify its existence.
You are the extraterrestrial
you were busy priding your genius in the hopeful discovery of.
