We Have Crossed the Galaxy To Find Dross
~Alien Abduction~
Lying on the sun warmed grass
Breaths mingling, hearts as one
Condensation clouds painting pictures that make us laugh
The change is sudden and not such fun
A swirling opens in the sky
A force beyond comprehension
Lifted from the grass, from my lips escapes a cry
Nothing we can do- there is no prevention.
Elbows bang, knees are skinned
Fear takes a hold on us
Sucked up in the air and pinned
Far to scared to cuss.
We are prodded we are poked
Looked at inside and out
I think that we are being choked
I pray that we pass out.
The floor opens a smoked glass room
Swirling down, is that the moon?
A voice ominous deep with gloom
Is this the end is this our doom?
“Be gone you are a waste, consider yourselves tossed
We have nothing more from you to learn
Even though a galaxy we have crossed.”
“You can teach us nought
You are nothing but flesh and bone
We seek those that we know can be taught
You are the dross, across a universe we have flown.”
“Go back to counting grass
That is what you are fit for
We will leave this earthly mass
You are not worth our time in war.”
“We want a people to command for them to make us their kings
Not spending time making love, not thinking of anything…
We are warriors of the galaxy we crossed your milky way
But you are worse than dust to us and we won’t be back another day.”
