Asteroid 2020 (There's a bloody big rock in the sky!)

I was walking home from work last night
Minding my business as you do
When I casually looked up to the sky
And saw a light quite close to the moon

What the heck is that I thought
It's much brighter than a star
Perhaps its aliens but what it was
Was much scarier by far

I went home on the internet
On NASA's website I did peruse
To see if any near Earth objects
Had made it into the news

But the news was full of viruses
And that was the reason why
Boris didn't mention that
There's a bloody big rock in the sky!

Its going to sweep by on Thursday
Let's hope it doesn't hit
Because if it ignores social distancing
We'll really be in the shit

So if you're reading this on Friday
We've survived there's nothing to fear
We're all just stuck in our houses now
Waiting for this virus to clear

Asteroid 2020 is visible in the night sky at the moment it looks like a very bright star.  It will come within 4 million miles of Earth and will safely pass by
