"Wise Alien" A Poetry Dice Entry

in poetrydice •  7 years ago 

Welcome, spaceman
To our earthly home
I'm not surprised
That we're not alone
Can I travel
The cosmos too
As freely as
You now do?
Through pyramid portals
Would I then fly?
Or like a fish bathed in flames
Would I sadly DIE?
You smile then cheerfully reply
"Do you shriek at shadows
In a well lit room?
Do you fear the night sky
When you can't see the moon?
Perhaps outer space
Isn't your best bet
You've not fully mastered
Inner space yet"

Thanks for reading and thanks to @robyneggs for hosting this challenge! I'm literally practicing what I preach right now by getting back into contests. I can't enter them all but I'll see how many I can do over the next few weeks.

Steem on, Steemians!

As much as I love a good poem I love horror/sci fi as a genre. Absolutely great combination of them both here. 👌🏻

Thanks, I just sort of looked at the dice and wrote what came to me 😁! If you're a writer too you should give #poetrydice a try (or #emojipoetry) 👍

Wow!!!! This one is really interesting to read! (^^,)/
