Aliens give a warning

Attention earthlings

A message from outer space

We have been sent to destroy you

Yes, the entire human race

The plan was to break you

To over take your heart and mind

So that each of you would hate

Those that’s not your kind

To sow division among you

To arm you with confusion

So you look down on one another

A superior Ego illusion

To make you give up learning

To numb compassion and numb care

To treat each other like garbage

And excuse it all with “life is just not fair”

Then we would make you worship paper

Destroying every tree

To willingly deny yourselves

The very air you breathe

We would have put a poison

Into the oceans blue

So that you could not drink it

But turns out, you did that for us too

So now we will be leaving

And we give you a goodbye

We didn’t have to do a thing

You’ve ensured your own demise

    Oh, I really like this! The meter and rhymes are perfect and the turn is stomach dropping. You used the alien device so well that I almost skipped it because I thought it might be hokey and tired. However I had a feeling it would be fresh and it was. Beautiful work!
