Night Visitors?

Old Jo-Bob checked his still one  night,
What he saw gave him a terrible fright.
One eye and one ear
They were drinking his beer,
With feet that glowed with  red light.
 
It seems their ship was stuck in a tree,
So they decided to stay and partEEE.
He watched them dance
until they fell in a trance,
and slept soundly 'til quarter to three.

After awhile they righted their ship,
And flew off with a bit of a dip.
Bob started  to drink
And tried not to think,
Had been true?  or just another bad trip..........


For the Aliens contest..
