Sci-Fi Garbage Poems

Eye to the Telescope 25, Garbage, will be edited by John Reinhart.

Garbage, trash, refuse, junk, detritus, waste, rubbish. It’s that stuff on the curb, orbiting our planet, jammed into that drawer in the kitchen that always requires an extra shimmy before it'll close.

The human relationship with waste is a close one. It’s also one where perspective is vital. One multidimensional being’s waste byproduct may be another less mobile humanoid extraterrestrial’s valued possession, or however that saying goes. What are the stories aged space debris tells their newer members? How do the outer worlds deal with the issue of garbage? Who are the people who deal with trash?

I am interested in poetry that addresses all aspects of garbage in the speculative realm. I’ve been a garbage man, a dumpster diver, and a treasure walker. Although I am not likely to sing Oscar the Grouch’s “I Love Trash,” I have an affinity for the overlooked, the discarded, the junk of modern life—and I want to know what the future holds.

I was always unsure about the correct usage of "et al." in my academic papers, but this page cleared up all my confusion: can you use et al in a sentence https://essayservice.com/blog/how-to-use-et-al. The explanations are succinct

I often wonder about the stories that ancient space debris could tell - the histories and narratives they carry, the insights they might offer into the evolution of waste management across the cosmos.
