Live Broadcast!

The television was loud and distracting

it drew her attention

a live broadcast had gathered a crowd

the reporter was excited

pointing up at the sky at a large object

sunlight off the surface did reflect!

 

As more cars stopped police and army

soon arrived on the scene

the huge triangular craft moved slowly

soon there was a helicopter

flying around it she became fascinated

as the reporting was so animated!

 

Unable to stop watching this live drama

as another helicopter arrived

the crafts speed increased then a flash

an explosion as both choppers

in blazing pieces crashed onto the road

the screen then did implode!

 

Everybody took cover as the sparks flew

the situation unable to grasp

what had they all witnessed was it real

she had to get out the bar

naturally glancing up at the empty sky

her throat felt very dry!

Hovering!

He sat there alone in the fast food restaurant

his arm was burning wanted shout

what was that thing hovering in the field

never seen anything like that

should have kept away why investigate

as his mouth started to salivate!

 

Tried drinking the coffee but was so thirsty

becoming agitated with the noise

certain others were watching him intently

heard a banging sound realised

his knees were hitting underside of the table

his mind and physical being unstable!

 

Just out walking the dog shit where was Jack

knew had to leave or would explode

knocking into people he no longer could see

wandered out onto the main road

bus driver said from nowhere was on the road

without any hesitation strode!

 

At the same moment a young couple discovered

a small dog barking at a field gate

taking a stroll on along a well-known lovers track

tried to get near the excited animal

who ran off into that empty field as if in pursuit

unsettled did not follow its route!

 

Been here on numerous occasions a rural haven

yet retreating eager to go home

heard the fearful cry that sounded like an animal

from a slow pace had the urge to run

from behind a noise like galloping horses on dirt

sensing danger they would be hurt!

 

Out of breath they got safely back to their car

clicking key fob to open doors

in a heightened state of panic both jumped in

would the engine start-up

relieved as it roared into life foot down they left

their emotions were bereft!

 

Where they had just departed the alien arrived

the taste for human prey instilled

wings spread drooling acid saliva through teeth

mercilessly sharp and pointed

cloaked returned to its hidden craft and lair

a malevolent being all were unaware!

 

Soon more would come of this ruthless breed!
