Close Encounter

And when I turned around
I saw it float above the ground
Suspended in the air

Into a flash a light
Outside of time and space and sound
The spaceship disappeared

And past the neighbor's house
He placed a hand around my neck
A finger to the mouth

The thing I hadn't seen
A mere reflection in the sky
A symptom of the drought
The fabricated sign

His shoulders laying bare
Beneath the figure in the night
He's burning at both ends

I tried to ask him why
I turned my body to the light
A way to make amends

And when he shot around
I saw the side I can't unsee
A creature of the night

The ones who cannot meet
The mere reflection in his eye
A thing that never should have been
When the opposites collide
