Kurt Vonnegut created an alien species called the Tralfamadorians in his bestseller Slaughterhouse Five. These species are defined by their ability to live in every moment at once. They do not experience unhappiness as we do, because when terrible things happen to them, they can look at another happy moment that is going on simultaneously. For this, the Tralfamadorians seem much wiser than human beings. Write a poem about an alien species that is wiser than the human race.

URON
Time
Time has no meaning to me
but yet time means everything you see
a thousand light years is made a day
the wisdom of Uron beyond the universe display
mastery of time and space
the secrets to existence lays within this place
i look to create a different scene from what i see
so i leave my planet to discover yours with the key
Earth
a place of land, tresses and seas
of emotions, hopes and dreams
perfect for recreation...
my wisdom is far from magic dear humans
but i come in peace
