When Pete met Su
When Pete met Su
Walking my dog, the other day.
The oddest thing happened, I must say.
She chased a rabbit round a tree,
and when I followed, staring at me,
was a MONSTER of nightmare fantasy.
Eight foot tall, it was I swear,
with pale blue skin, and nary a hair.
Six inch fangs, and snake-like eyes.
Can you imagine my surprise?
When it said "Hello. How do you do,
my name is Su, who are you."
I stood there mute. Forever it seemed.
Pondering, is this live or perhaps a dream.
I pinched myself. It hurt like hell.
So knowing live, I said "Pray tell
I know you said your name is Su,
but what I wonder is, what are you.
You're not of earth, that's a fact.
Would you please tell me where I'm at?
My name is Pete, by the way,
a pleasure to meet you here today."
"Pete my friend, you haven't gone.
You're right here where you belong.
You've just found out, you're not alone.
There's a billion worlds, a billion homes,
all connected in space and time.
Today, Yours just tied to mine.
Now just because I'm not cuddly cute,
does it really mean, I'm a threat to you?
Open your heart, for one day soon
you will be living on your moon,
and with atmosphere and G-force low,
it is there that you will come to know,
we are out there and we will show,
you foolish HUMANS, you're not alone."
