1974 Mystery Light

A big white did pace the ute, no noise it made, what sort of a brute? it must still be there it never left, next thing i knew we had a coppers arrest, We seem to have lost memory of the lights leaving? ...1974 Mystery Light.... So we drove on the Moonie Highway, Between Dalby and St George, It was fairly late at night, dark timber all we saw, (its all gone now the timber, and the big dry came ) A great white light appeared beside us, In the treetops, beside the road, It was completely soundless, Stayed beside us, brightly showed, So we tried speeding up, And we tried slowing down, But it followed as we led, One hundred mile from town, So I said to Wayne give me the rifle, I'll put a bullet in it soon, But they wouldn't let me shoot it, It was bigger than the moon, I asked Mark and Wayne, but they didn't see it go, But we never saw it wander, the bloody so and so? Next thing we were arrested, Like stunned mullets? in the dark, By a copper in a singlet wearing thongs, (out hunting in his own car?) a bright spark? He'd look at you while talking, With his head half turned away..................(WAS HE AN ALIEN?.)... Booked our Mark for speeding, Drunken copper all I'd say? Don Johnson Chris D.

Mackey (nee Dean) Brummell My cousin Don's wife had an experience about that same time, with the big white light following her and the kids home, not far away north on the St George Mitchell road.... She had to get the kids to open gates and was nervous of this thing that followed them..... Her son Keith 10 years later was out Roo shooting in the night with a local St George man and they saw the light too,(much the same area) the passenger refused to leave the car to open gates on the Station property they were shooting on, the light changed direction and eventually left them at high velocity...
I did me an hypno regression on the missing time, got the picture. I saw a flying saucer cross the road at a few hundred feet, could see panels on the underside of it, saw a light beam transfix my cousin, saw his red hair with a gold curl in the light and the bright blue shorts i had forgotten he wore that day. Interesting to me! Don Johnson
