'The Universe Is A House Party' (Pg 13)

This poem was interesting to me because of how the title grabbed my attention. It kind of switched the mood up and made it more hospitable. The first sentence "the universe is expanding" draws a picture of how vast space really is and makes me wonder what is really out there. I think its cool how Smith tries to relate a party, something you may never want to end, to the universe that is never ending. Also, I liked the idea of aliens being welcomed to our "party" and it made me think of all the memes related to the Facebook event where people planned on raiding Area 51.
