One more poem

I've had a weird week consisting of a lot of thoughts about this blog and I've decided to change things up. As much as I love reading I don't find I'm very strong when it comes to writing about books, certainly not in the way that I'm strong at writing about music so I've decided to just post music reviews. I didn't get a review done this week because this decision was only made tonight so I'm gonna leave you with a poem this week and I promise from this moment onward you'll be getting a weekly album review. I look forward to keeping it up and I hope you enjoy this poem!

Aliens, Stay Home
I was not deceived,
the terrifying swirls were just protecting the beautiful pearls.
My road rage melted away instantly.
Were you choking on my exhaust,
doing your best to instill fear,
until you figured out how you got lost?

I would like the record to show I stood up for your cause,
begged the little boys to put their big game on pause.
I wish scientists made decisions and passed laws;
we would have caressed and studied instead of ripping you with claws.

Am I the only one who feels the technological weight we lost?
Sure, we don't feel scared anymore but how much did it cost?
