[bodytext] => They came from outer space all right.
Answering a friend’s invite
to stop and see the family
living west of Tennessee.
Adjusted their trajectory;
Careful no one else would see.
They arrived at half past noon.
Discovered accidentally
By students of astronomy.
Who came in force and secrecy
To see what none had ever seen.
The visit was a sheer delight.
The party lasted late that night.
To this day we’re unconvinced
Why no one’s seen the students since

Well, they had at this picnic an incredible fruit salad,
unlike most had ever seen, it was a perfect indigo in color,
something never seen, perhaps it came from a riptilla
tibual, it held so brilliantly this luminous, numinus quality,
blobs of it suspended in the cleanest translucent gel, like heaven beyond any dream - luckily the students
wore space suits so the sounds they made could not be heard by the alien - or maybe it did not help.
The beach was the last coordinates found on a phone
months later that showed up in Brazil.
I like the way this was written, the imagery is very cool.
Peace!
