Invaders

Way out there in the star filled black
Who knows who is looking back?
Worlds unknown to us down here
Dare they visit us without fear?

Mystery and intrigue fills our mind
Of what lies up there and what we’d find,
Visitors to earth I very much doubt
If they knew what humans were all about.

The earth is battered bruised and torn
Its rich resources are now well worn,
Humans will never relent their rape
No peace from this nightmare – there’s no escape.
