" CLOSE ENCOUNTER "

" CLOSE ENCOUNTER "

I died one day, but could never understand
I died one day, yet somehow began to live again
And so within such callous contradiction
A tender mercy from far beyond myself
Began to control my emotions and I began to comprehend
The twisted fate of DNA, that first made me a man
A feral visitation, which occurred so long ago
Had brought to all humanity, self-awareness set aglow
A gift, from heavenly cartography
A simple adjustment, a sensory seed
Implanted as a gift, I began to finally see
Last night the sun came out
And the sky began to sing
All the people standing next to me
Had sun burned skin and barely mumbling
All had reported the very same thing
A UFO had touched their lives
And I was there to see
That one day I would die
But somehow I knew
Without a doubt
That I would
Live again..

Tony Taylor.  (Chicago)

Hello Tony...

Very interesting write...

There are UFO towers and a UFO highway in Colorado...

The tower is just a few steps off the ground...

You can camp there at very low cost in the summer...

The stories that people share are pretty amazing...

I have not seen anything like that yet...

I can only imagine the thoughts that people would have...

The excitement people have when they tell their stories...

True or not...

They always make me smile...

Great write! 

Thank you for sharing...

Hi  Tony  I enjoyed this write  I am fascinated 
by UFOs when i was younger  in the eighties i collected a series
of magazines  called "The Unexplained of Mind space and time"
I had at least forty Some of the articles were on UFOs
landings, pictures, people saying that aliens had taken over
their mind,also there were writings of Area 51 in Nevada
Anyways your poem enhances beautifully in your words the theory 
of the existence of a UFO,and a landing by one that changed your life.
I loved this so interesting and thought provoking wanting me 
to delve deeper. love n hugs Debs

Hi My Brother Poet Tony,

A total eclipse of the heart!

Touching fingers with an "ET"! 

The new found light!

Darkness dissipates!

Life regenerates! 

I live! 

I am!!

Peace, Love and Rockets,
