Unidentified Extraterrestrials Willingly Abducted Me
Unidentified extraterrestrial(s) willingly abducted me
As a divergence
from the apocalyptical, dialectical,
geomorphological, judgmatical,
metaphorical, philosophical...,
I share an out of this
(webbed wide) world,
light hearted anecdote
ye may find far fetched.
Believe me you,
an unspecified number of years ago,
yours truly availed himself
as an experimental subject,
and since then subsequently
no longer fears dark shadows
shimmering within outer limits
of the twilight zone.
Specific details elude me,
thus only a general sketch
can be provided
Upon falling into a deep slumber
after taking a respite
from my daily constitutional
within vicinity of Ardmore, Pennsylvania
countless decades ago,
the following subconscious
somnambulant scenario arose
allowing, enabling, and providing
temporary alleviation
from a harried styled
and swiftly tailored married state.
Out of a tendency to be impetuous,
and oblivious to danger,
I voluntarily let myself
get abducted by this gamesome
handsome, and venturesome green eyed
Geico looking alien ghoul.
Any resemblance between
the following piecemeal description
being kidnapped by an alien
(from another condemn nation
in the cosmos), and living persons
then lamenting married life
purely coincidental.
Although pitch-black
that hot summer July night 20xx,
an ominous ghastly shape
lumbered near the skeletal
partially built addition
at Lower Merion High School.
This phantasmagorical amorphous,
diaphanous, illustrious... entity
hovered outside his/her
phosphorescent flying saucer.
I stood stock still as my warm breath
bestirred, dispersed, fractured thick fog
(actually smoke from Canadian wildfires)
creating, generating, loosing,
rousing and yawning miniature clouds
that formed a gauzy window.
Thru this opaque grounded soundcloud
ether movements detected.
Eight tentacles (similar
to Octopus teacher viewed
courtesy NetFlix)
shredded this faux misty shroud
and quickly, yet gently grabbed me.
I found myself on-board
a battle gray extra-terrestrial object.
Fate delivered me out of desperation
into the "hands" of what appeared
as the most surreal setting
created by ingenious
computer graphics technicians.
Nanny boo boo
uttered the creature
from black abyss.
Since what sounded
like outer space gibberish
as a second language
not an elective when I attended
Methacton High School,
(nor colleges for that matter),
an automatic reflex took over.
I offered a gap toothed
(i.e. Alfred E. Neuman trademark -
what me worry) wry smile
foreigners (vaguely resembling
grateful dead foo fighters
didn't get MAD at me.
An immediate interest
arose from these outliers
at the ultra thin metallic post
sticking atop me noggin.
Robotic, galactic and electronic signals
broadcast and received
courtesy said antenna.
Nevertheless, a crazy idea occurred.
Maybe these foreigners
from another galaxy
could secure long overdue
permanent implanted teeth
(in place of these ill fitting dentures)
without charging an arm or leg.
Ha!
Non-verbal communication
resorted to as a necessary expedient
to establish comprehension
and self preservation!
Additionally, the notion
to avoid any action interpreted
as hostile best be applied
even at the expense
of being whisked away
(no matter mine very fantasy
far out and groovy whim)
countless light-years from
1148 Greentree Lane,
Narberth, Pennsylvania.
Psychiatric medications:
BUSPIRONE TAB 15MG,
CLOMIPRAMINE CAP 50MG,
CLONAZEPAM TAB 0.5MG,
FLUOXETINE CAP 40MG,
(GLYCOPYRROLATE, TAB 2MG,
PRAZOSIN HCL CAP 5MG,
PRAZOSIN HCL CAP 1MG,
RISPERIDONE TAB 1MG,
ROPINIROLE HCL 0.5MG
prescribed by Doctor David Lee Wrought)
most definitely eased anxiety
per dread locked terror
that loomed large
within my quite active imagination.
I willingly made clear
(using all manner of gesticulations)
to surrender myself,
which idea triggered
a flickering googly eyed excitement.
Wow!
This bizarre situation
could offer golden opportunity
to escape the tragedies
of terrestrial existence,
and perhaps get linkedin
with another weird
organic life form
ideally non human
or not otherwise specified.
Once this electric like surge
coursed thru each fiber,
I brazenly approached
the other-worldly specimens
guarding their shimmering craft,
which appeared to hover
just barely above the perimeter
slated to be another
state of the art wing of this campus.
I hemmed and hawed
with tentative steps
before nonchalantly
scaling the hydraulically propelled ladder.
At once, an immediate
whoosh took place.
After these myopic eyes
adjusted to the scene,
I observed an identical
earth like landscape and heard
what sounded
like the most melodious chimes.
Actually, that globe happened
to be dear third rock from the sun
as viewed from the nearest window.
Upon setting foot into the structure,
an automatic accelerator activated
before the spaceship
jettisoned and sped away
Mötley Crüe at warp speed.
Within my mind, I thought
what to do to pass the time???
Instantaneous sans any desire
promulgated that very wish.
Ah!
Perchance, these ethereal creatures
(large, medium and small)
conveyed messages telepathically?
I put this hypothesis
to a rudimentary
electric kool aid acid test.
Within my mind,
I silently uttered Matthew Scott Harris.
An instant reply came back - in my head.
Every one of these
wraith-like cosmic nomads
understood whims wirelessly,
albeit telepathically
thus believing yours truly
(me self) to breathe easy
said species reduced signals
to digital bits
and/or hallowed weaned bytes.
Upon waking up, I realized
the aforementioned a dream
to be continued…
in another millennium or so.
