Planet B

Hey there

Life on Earth got you
feeling hurt
scorned
rejected?

Well
hold on
hold on
ooh baby

Just across the Way
is a mass just starting
its several
hundred thousand-
(give or take)
year-birth

a lovely thing
already
poised to be
twice the size
of Jupiter

Hope we don't end
up hating
what our galaxy
may be creating
