Science Fiction - The Translucent Blue Alien Poem by Paul Warren

The day at the television station started the same
As did other days when transmitting the games
Of the Olympiad in its four yearly anniversary
When teams from countries are sporting adversaries

So the job for the television technician that day
Was to make sure the best pictures would not be delayed
On the station sports coverage to get their money's worth
To see each gold medal won in the sporting world's girth

Boosting the signal and cleaning it up to be broadcast
Was the priority for the day's work would be able to last
But the screen went snowy and then dark to black
When it came on again a humanoid face looked back

The humanoid did not say anything just looked out and stared
Then from its mouth in a translucent blue face flashing lights bared
And it blinked out a message to the world's audience to know
The ultimatum was to prepare themselves for a change to flow

All the strife in the world was caused by a flaw that was made
When they planted our seed and our potential would fade
They had travelled to this earth to right this wrong
To reboot our minds and for us to develop along.
