What Big Beautiful Eyes You Have

Mushroom clouds cover the planet And deadly viruses to advance the plan An obsolete species draws its last breath The dust settles on the skulls of man Souls free to soar the heights From the direction of alien minds Too emotional to appreciate the splendor For our unreasonably fear-based kind The repopulation of the Earth With a half-hybrid stoic people Eyes as big as those we've all seen In the tabloids that made us chuckle Factories for test-tube breeding As operational as an assembly line Producing state-of-the-art organic widgets DNA mixed with another alien bloodline Souls sucked out of the atmosphere Into new bodies we are embedded Now able to control our impulses The Neanderthal gene extracted Like an employee of the month Doing my job as been instructed I have a sudden deja vu From something beautifully sculpted I notice an exceptional female Some how I feel a connection As if in some way I have known her Feeling something called 'inspiration' I follow her with like a puppy Then she turns to look at me All four enormous eyes soften And we continue our beautiful telepathy

The future.....no longer light years away from some beings, I would assume. Great imagery from an imaginative mind looking out from gray eyes turned silver.
