What I Saw On the Way To Work
What I Saw on the Way to Work
By Elton Camp
Approaching my office, I hear a weird sound
The whine came from the sky, not the ground
And then to myself, I very confidently said
It has to be some airplane passing overhead
People began to scream, “Quick, look up there!”
I did and the sight gave me a most terrible scare
The huge object was circular and metallic gray
I shook in great fear & didn’t know what to say
It was motionless, yet remained high in the air
My pupils widened and on end stood my hair
The dim letters XAOH made no sense to me
I could only ponder what the meaning could be
A thing like this is supposed to appear at night
But here it was with the sky so blue and bright
If I tell seeing it, the report would be called a lie
So I decided to give my cell phone camera a try
So sooner had I saved the image to a microchip
Than with a whoosh, the UFO away did slip
But I had absolute proof safely stored away
To support the truth of everything that I say
