An Alien Abduction

An Alien Abduction

By Elton Camp

The tale he feels compelled to relate.
So, the ancient mariner does imitate.
He stops whomever he comes to see.
“Come here now and listen to me.”

He was driving the road one night
And he got the most terrible fright.
A whirring sound off to the side,
It made him feel the need to hide.

As he heard it drawing so near,
A brilliant light then did appear.
The car’s motor went suddenly dead.
His eyes near bulged out of his head.

Somehow he felt compelled to dare
To leave the car and go over there.
Saucer was fifty feet off the ground.
Glowing in silver, ninety feet around.

He wanted to quickly run away,
But a voice said, “Earthling stay.”
From it came a blue energy beam.
It made him feel as if in a dream.

And then to his utter surprise.
Toward the ship he bean to rise.
Next he knew, he lay on a table.
To make a move he was unable.

Aliens stood to his left and right.
Their odd appearance was a sight.
Their skin was green, eyes of red.
Two big bulges on their heads.

They then did a medical exam.
Down his throat a tube did ram.
Gave him a check head to toe.
And only then they let him go.

Since then, it’s happened more.
They abducted twice, as before.
He is sure they have an evil plan
That involves destruction of man.

He has tried to tell the Air Force,
But they refuse to listen, of course.
Though it is such a scary alien plot.
To get people to believe, he cannot.
