A Completely Stupid Poem (About Aliens)
by Aaron BlairThe pyramids at Giza were made by aliens.
The founding fathers were aliens.
Michael Jackson is an alien.
And maybe I'm an alien, too.
If I squint a little while looking in the mirror,
my skin could almost be green,
my shark-mouth of crooked teeth
vanished in favor of truly noteworthy mandibles,
my eyes bulging and black as gravity wells.
The government knows about the aliens.
The military knows about the aliens.
Any vote for a politician is a vote for an alien.
Their voting booths are telepathic and tamper-resistant.
I checkmark the box that says:
"I know you're out there. Come and get me."
I'm bored. The only thing keeping me conscious
is the idea of a cold metal probe,
silicate lubrication, their molestation technology
vastly superior, but somehow, it still hurts going in. 01/23/2008 Posted on 01/23/2008

| Posted by Anita Mac on 01/23/08 at 06:36 PM I wouldn't say stupid... Cute and sarcastic, with a twist of bitter at the end. Makes for a decent piece. I got a kick out of it anyway... Particularly the bit on voting. ;o) |
