If the Stars Could Talk

We used to be worshiped. And not just by lovers. Nobody can see us now because of all their inappropriate artificial lights. 

Don’t humans know that wildlife is also negatively affected? Their own sleep too. It serves them right they can’t sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star to their babies anymore. 

If you listen carefully you can hear the North Star lamenting, “Oh, we’re twinkling, but you can’t see us because of your own stupid lights.”

Thanks to their inventions there’s no looking up to see glorious starry nights anymore.

Humans can still see the Milky Way though. 

In a book.
