UFO AGENT’S SKIPPING ROPE
I’m standing at the window
Something terrible.
I’m frightened.
Me – from this side.
From that side – a crow
And fog.
I strain to hear:
A flying saucer
Or not?
I hope
It will pass
And me.
Oh my, oh my?
Something is happening…
Something is there.
It takes a bite out of the windowpane
And sucks
Me somewhere.
It catches me
A ball of light.
With a hold of me.
See you later,
Lady Earth!
And You!
From there to you
I will write…
I will write…
I will write…
