Alter Image

There it is - a giant lizard or is it only the image of his scrawny neck with its large bobbing apple that has misled me? Yes, folks can be cruel about appearance, he might be beautiful on the inside, but his skin! His eyes are really black and glassy and they bulge! I suspect he actually is an alien lizard being he's testing me making me judge him. One more reptilian alien interloper sent to this planet, their mission: just to make me look bad, but I already look bad.
