French Graphic

We're back in the'fifties,' you'll never be there,
the circular line art was behind my reception desk,
it was rather nice but somebody said they don't care
for a decent mindset when they could only stand and stare.

We are not alone, the aliens grinning at the wall,
they didn't have big heads and large black eyes,
needed a new dome designed on good old Mars,
where the oxygen's rising but offices downsizing.

Those 'fifties,' were 3050 - way ahead of you,
the esp said you were a fool quietly, twice nightly,
but then maybe once should have been enough,
nothing to be done - you'll always be rough.

They tried to lean on the counter but no elbows,
the art sighed but intelligence comes and goes.

Hey TERRY!!...this is 'Way Cool' in terms of subject matter & poetic skills!!...I don't know why you chose to call the 'Genre' of this Prose....because it's NOT prose...it's a fine poetic Sonnet through and through but I'm sure you had your reasons......I LOVE the Alien joke about 'No Elbows' you threw in there.....it's filled with some great phrasing too and deals with THE subject matter of the moment!!.....Because Aliens DO exist, our government is currently, and have been for some years now, in conferences and alliances with them!!.....It's all been proven fact.....and even the retired head of the Israeli Head of Defense has just announced to the general public of his personal dealings with them as well as admitting the U.S. Military leaders have been as well.....I could go into MUCH greater detail for you here but it would take quite a while.....suffice it to say.....some time in our immediate future it will be all over American media and Newspapers.....I have been talking about this stuff for years now and I'm excited to be alive when it is FINALLY being revealed!!.......Great write brother!!.......ALL STARS & PINNED!!.......LOVE & ROCKETS!!.......T xo  : )

Hi Tony,
Thanks so much for the pin.
Not all rhyming so I said prose.
Interesting about aliens - when
will be that day when we know all?
Thanks again - my spiritual guide!
Regards,
Terry.

Really clever narrative of unveiling the curtains like that. I had no clue where your poem was heading! Just simply wonderful. Peace and smiles to you Terry! TFOTS
