THE DAY I HAVE AWAITED

My Living Room is My Public
Forum
I can say whatever I want
Here
I’ve been offered a cup of tea
& told to wait for Time
but I’m sick of waiting
I feel The Time is Now
for Our New Beginning
where there will no longer be
Us & Them
if The Aliens are Here
They are Us
& We/They have already infiltrated
The Internet
& My Radio
Time was already here.
Ben, your idea of serving TEA is perfect. I have black-and-white cookies, with a few GREY thrown in. Which would you choose — oh yeah — SAC has arrived. Where do you think Time would like to sit?
Sitting at the foot of the table and wearing an alien green frock with my little pinky finger in the air. Is Time here yet?
Time seems to be the guest of honour. This is MY PARTY — I stole it from Ben.
Stolen parties are the best sort. I think Time just got here, late.
