Veiled Aggression

In a moment of disorientation I fell into the sun

The radiation was no fun

My house cat didn’t consider it a pun

With the zombie apocalypse I’m on the run,

Can’t see the forest for the trees

What if the universe were ever to sneeze?

Drawn into deception by degrees

Would it make any difference if I said please?

What about this chip inside my head

Sometimes I think I’d be better off dead

And what of the silent invaders who get hot lead

Perhaps I become the victim instead,

Just fond reflections from inner space

Thought I caught a whiff of her perfume and lace

There she goes with such elegance and grace

What I wouldn’t give for a can of mace,

So the aliens crashed on hallowed ground

Amazed at the ancient civilization that they’d found

But for a wish upon a burial mound

Startled by that air raid siren sound,

First I’m up and then I’m down

Who’s the fool who wears that crown?

My lost lover in her ritual gown

Could be why that I wear this frown,

Life is but a muddled impression

All your thoughts and confused expressions

Despite your late night confessions

Save me from all the veiled aggression.
