Embryonic Time Travelers

Time travel has always fascinated man Could UFOs be steered by human hands Consider this premise before you say no So called “grays” resemble human embryos Evolution proceeds, gene pool depleted Mind power expanded but bodies weakened Future man looks back in a quest to erase Effects of the technology we embrace With smog blocking sun’s rays, skin has turned gray Bodies thin as meat exits the food parade Reproduction is challenged by low-grade genes Sad Earthlings search the past and like what they see Tan, healthy bodies adorned by hairy manes Fertile women who suckle innocent babes Men of great strength who clear forests with axes Strong immune systems when a virus attacks In sore need of genetic material Large-brained grays devise a means for time travel Abductees are beamed to aircraft by bright rays Frightened while forced to donate their sperm and eggs Time travelers say nothing, perhaps ashamed To be stealing from ancestors in this way Capacity for learning greatly enhanced But the grays know nothing of sex or romance When farmers find signs of mutilated cattle Such evidence should not provoke a call to battle If future man’s life is genetically revived Meat may be required to keep humans alive Don’t hide in terror when you see colored lights Spinning in circles on chilly autumn nights Close encounters, but abductees’ lives are spared Returned to their homes by captors who care Consider the fate of new generations If you’re called upon to make a “donation” Experiments grays perform may seem absurd But they may be trying to save our own world

Great stuff! I won't object as long as some alien race Child Support Agency doesn't demand maintenance payments from me : ) Seriously, did you ever read about Barney and Betty Hill?

Congratulations on your well-deserved win, Carolyn! I feel the same sympathy you feel. The world needs more people like you to save them from stravation and a possible destruction of all plant and animal life, including us. This is so inspiring and awesome. Enjoy the glory of your win. Thanks for your kind comments today. Have a wonderful day. Love and hugs, Andrew.

Are you one of those Men in Black dudes? Or, maybe, you are one of them!!! Maybe you are a gray in sheeps clothing. Posing as a master poet but simply stealing our seed. Indeed. Nice poem. Very fun read. Thanks for sharing. Joe

Let me guess, you were abducted in your teens, but no recollection worth admitting. They taught you the bigger picture. Doesnt go over well with mortals does it? You childrens generation were supposed to heal the planet, but we were so wounded, by capitalism, consumerism, drugs, competition, we are 20 years too late. Now the consequences are higher. We are too afraid to look into the future now. It doesnt look good. Hope is all we have.
