From the edge of the restaurant garden
where children played.
And parents sat happily in the sun
unaware of what glared.
Through thick bushes of its border
was life from a new order!
Dormant until conditions were precise
to be the first-born.
Deep in the soil a crashed meteor lay
aliens spores slowly grew!
Matured ready with humans to mingle
as nerve endings tingled!
Rising from the deep clinging clay it came
an unearthly creature emerged!
Into the unknown with faltering steps
to those present a monster.
Though not showing aggressive traits
not a good fate awaits!
Where anything unexplained was feared
had to be evil or violent!
Yet the creature was passive and docile
an infant of its kind.
Men with guns arrived to exterminate
this life to obliterate!
Before scientist could intervene to save
a unique alien species.
Weapons killed with no care or mercy
with man’s usual aggression.
Being the dominant species their vision
no compromise or division!
Satisfied they’d made the proper choice
another set of eyes observed.
Absorbing a violent ending of a brother
intent on a different approach.
As more of the alien sleepers awoke
through the soil they broke!
