Aliens (6 Cinquain)

ALIENS (six Cinquain)

“creatures!
another world?
just think how far it is
beyond the blue    and heaven too
ALIENS!”


“lizards!”
“yes    with rough scales
and with bulging eyeballs
that can see right through a human
REPTILES!”


“safety?
are we all safe?
are these reptiles friendly?”
"some say their long tongues spit poison.
DEADLY!”


“defense!
can they be killed?
how large are these lizards?”
“about the size of a frisbee.”
“ALERT!”


“asking.
have you seen one?”
“yes    I saw one last night
flying – a colorful saucer.”
“ALAS!”


“truly.”
“the myths are true?”
“yes    they are among us.
you’d better check your basement.”
“HORRORS!”
