Invasion

Little green men
Have invaded our television
Visions of aliens from mars
Instead of sugar plums
Dance through our head
Threatening our sanity
Causing hysteria
There are little green men
On the television
Sometimes I think all of those crazy politicians
And officials might be little green men themselves
Disguised as humans
To hide their existence
But I shouldn't think too loudly
The little green men might come after me.

Yeah are minds are invaded and confused with the unreal.

An amusing light-hearted piece! Though you usually write serious pearls of wisdom that we all need and like, these words are no less needed and desired!

[Ahmad Cox]

Thank you. Every once in a while I will get in a silly mood and something like this will come out.

[Victoria PoetryBunny]

Haha I like the humor in this that seems so much like truth at times.
"Visions of aliens from mars
Instead of sugar plums"
Love that part.

And also love the ending:
"Sometimes I think all of those crazy politicians

Yeah I had been watching too many episodes of X files when I read this.

Amusing on the surface, but disturbing underneath. Essentially, the powers that be like to keep the masses in fear so as to keep their power. When we stop fearing then the power is shared among everyone.

[Ahmad Cox]

Yep. And I was watching a little too much tv when I wrote this too.

[Sheila Kline]

Oh, watch out for those little green men! They are indeed a threat, and we are best not to encourage them!!
Interesting write my friend!!

[Ahmad Cox]

I have just watched SpaceBalls on too many times

[Frieda P]

hahahahaaha that must it!

[Ahmad Cox]

But I am actually X Files and all of those other crazy conspiracy theory shows about aliens too.

[Ahmad Cox]

This is what happens when I haven't gotten enough sleep and I have spent too many night staying up watching tv.

[Frieda P]

Well, it's a good thing then, it's different for you but I thoroughly enjoyed it...
