Notes About The Poem

On September 20th “truth seeker” plan to storm Area 51

Simon is a game with colors and tones that you memorize and repeat which get steadily harder to master.

Area 51

what did i go here for
was it the mountain of mashed potatoes
marching me
toward the Simon light
if my memory…

red...beep…
     blue...beep
green...beep
     blue...beep
yellow...beep..red

helicopters overhead
a bright light
the calvary came

the desert storm
haboob of aliens
through the gate

they be strange creatures
with cutouts and lanterns
boozing and screaming

they be us kooks
and those be their warning shots
area 51 adieu

I remember that movie, I think it stared Richard Dreyfus. Personally I can’t see how there isn’t life on other planets.

I love the movie and Richard Dreyfus was a perfect match.
