Elon Musk, while very rich, is not exactly known for having deep thoughts, but he nevertheless tried his hand at one late last Monday when he tweeted a small poem about space.


The poem is likely a reference to criticisms Musk and his billionaire brethren Jeff Bezos and Richard Branson have faced for funding personal journeys to outer space rather than investing their enormous wealth in humanitarian causes such as combatting world hunger or fighting climate change. However, Musk's humble poem seemed to do little to sway his critics, who responded with poems of their own.


Others were more pointed in their criticism, and took to sharply implying that Musk should invest his space race money elsewhere.


While it seems that Musk is certainly aware people are criticizing him, Musk still seems to have plans to go to space—albeit on a Virgin rocket, not a Tesla one.
