Visitors from another planet

#321 Just landed

I have just landed

I think it is funny

all this time all this money

spent looking for another planet

when on the surface

this seems to be perfect

there is seas

and land

trees and mountains

what more could you need

you have everything

yet so many are starving

as politicians

continue carving

up the land

to make theirs look grand

way too much movement

too much pollution

I am here from another planet

I don’t have the solution

all I can do is report it

I have visited

and decided

that this planet

is way too distorted

not somewhere I would like to stay

so when my Mother ships flies back around

I will be leaving, leaving today!

Feeling detached

#320 Detached

Recently I have been feeling

so detached

if I was a house that would be fine

as I would be worth a pretty penny

but I am not a house

I am a human

who is finding it hard

to relate

finding it hard

to communicate

with all these various mediums available

to me

I wish I could just get away

be alone

somewhere

not have to explain

why I feel stifled

why I just want to be

more intouch

with others

looking for others

just like me.

Why are we so connected to our cars?

#318 Violated

I feel violated

not because of what was done to me

violated by the fact that my car

was damaged and  attacked

by some uninvited intruder

can you think of anything ruder

minding it’s own business

not in the way

then someone thought

they would violate my car this way

I sit behind the wheel

for some reason it feels different

or is it just how these things make you feel

why do people do this

what is the deal

give me a chance

let me show them how it feels

A cold

#317 A Cold

It creeped up on me

when I least expected it

it started with a tickle

at the back of my throat

before I knew it

I couldn’t breathe

I wanted to sneeze

no amount of tissues

could ease my discomfort

my voice was distorted

when I spoke it hurt

I wanted to curl up

into a ball

and stay in bed

they would report

it was only a cold

wait for me to get better

send comfort

in cards and letters

wishing I would get better
