days had passed .. perhaps a week
my senses returned yet I couldn't speak
my mouth was completely dry
waking on a plateau .. I lay still
knowing i'd never been so high
my bike was running .. rumbling
I'd felt something was wrong
odd noises .. squeals .. inhuman grunts
emanated just beyond the boulders
I'd stood .. wobbling at first
man, what a party .. my feet were numb
I'd stumbled towards my bike
turned the key off
reached into my saddlebag for a warm beer
It sprayed all over me .. I didn't care
noon day sun was bearing down
anguished sounds reached my ears again
I'd cautiously hobbled over
peeked behind the boulders
a strange, twisting female form
was trapped in a web of some kind
I'd viciously rubbed my eyes .. blinked
lit a joint .. dropped my beer on my foot
clambered back to my bike .. opened another
I'd returned to free her with my pocket knife
cutting the foreign material
seemed to take forever
whilst i'd heard her breathing deep for her life
pulled her out .. her hair brushed my skin
It was made of soft strands of metal
I took a long drink .. again i'd heard music
Morrison singing
break on through to the other side
I'd asked the lady whom she is
where is she from
she'd stated her name is Szzay from Saturn
Martians and Venusians had zorked her
I had to have more beer, something to snack
Mars delight .. Venus delicacy
