Alien Intentions
Alien Intentions

Style: Slow
Notes: A spooky number, with a bit of revelation thrown in for good measure.
I looked and saw
Sitting in the sun
Lots of friends.
Food cooking,
People talking,
Smiling, happy to be here.
I looked up and saw a black spectre in the sky.
As I watch an eagle appears,
Disperses the spectre as it soars from right to left.
All of a sudden, the eagle bursts into flame and disappears.
I turn to the man next to me,
He is watching, too.
Then everything became suddenly cold,
Chilling to the bone, chilling to the soul.
Hundreds of black specters flying from left to right
Filling the sky.
I looked around the room,
Warm and comfortable
With the fire alight.
A draped entry caught my eye.
The curtain moving
With the breeze.
Behind the curtain I sense
An evil malevolence.
It’s something that I sense
Is hidden there
In there.
I back away
But feel it coming near.
A red glow flashes behind the drapes
But there’s no warmth.
The room turns cold.
What are your alien intentions?
What are your alien intentions?
I see a black man
Sitting in a dining room
With someone there.
They are talking,
Heated, but not quite arguing.
The man looks through the door
Into the next room
And sees a cat on the mantlepiece.
He stands and gets
A long blade dagger,
Which he throws at it.
I see the dagger
Spinning through the air
Toward the cat.
As it jumps it is impaled
Onto the wall
By the blade.
The scene cuts back
To the man,
But the dagger blade
Is thrust into his mouth.
His eyes are wide,
Blood is flowing out.
I saw a great white throne
And the One
Who sat on it.
Earth and Heaven disappeared,
Leaving me
In emptiness.
I saw the dead,
Great and small,
Standing there,
Standing where
A book was opened
Listing all their works
By which they were judged.
The sea gave up
All the dead in it,
And death and hades, too.
And all were judged
By what they had done,
And Death and Hades were
Thrown into the lake of fire.
Thrown into the lake of fire.
