The Big Deception

UFOs—
unidentified flying objects.

But flying objects
are often man-made.

So does that mean
our government is alien?

The big deception:

alien life forms in space.

But alien life forms
aren’t humans from other countries.

Aliens are monsters—
monsters are predators—

corrupt entities
hidden within a nation’s trust.

Citizens believe
in current events
while real threats
remain hush-hush.

Maybe we need a system
without division—

multiplying solutions
by removing opposition,

until cooperation
becomes the thing
we recognize
as human.
