Stay Away

Stay Away

A Poem by Brett Hernan
"

Nothing personal.

"
We

could be

comparing scars

for months.

There are easily enough stories now

to last
at least

the next
300

 
years,

without

repeat
episodes.

Every
thing

humans
have
communicated

by
radio wave energy
has
emanated
into space:

using its vacuum
to hurtle on...

 frictionless.

1. if there were beings other than human in the universe, and these beings
had access to devices with the capability of translating these radio wave energy forms back into their originally intended end-product compositions,
(subconsciously sent by us in order to render them intelligible
to any other version
of ourselves
which might
somewhere exist).

These
radio frequency
waves
which are so often
used for their ease
of
interchangeable
communications

of so many,
and varied
a type.

Then,
theoretically,
the fact
that we
have never heard
upon this earth
any
known communication
incoming
from aliens
in the same form,
by the same medium,
that is, utilsing those
frequencies required by TV,
radio,
military satellite
type and
etcetera
of radio-frequency bound transmission
possibly
indicates that
these suspectedly
existent
alien beings
are completely devoid
of such technologies.

That,
or the aliens
have the ability
to somehow
cloak,
by obfuscation,
their own
signals

and,
from the
unexpurgated,

clear,

thorough
and honest

distant,
historical vision

they've rcvd

throughout the days,

and since the day

when Marconi
successfully communicated
his first
vowel sound

to those


blooded over

with
every fighter bombers'
chatter

when
'lighting up'

an Afghan
orphanage.

And so,

who


could
blame
them

for staying
as  far away
as possible?
