SILENT VISITATION IS APPARENTLY OK

i remember when this happened -

i remember 
i was walking down 
an empty hospital corridor 
in a fickle fri pm 
loose work-almost-done buzz 
when i saw this child 
coming up toward me 
with 
eyes 
soooooo 

    f  a  r    a  p  a  r  t

~

i remember 
his inverted teardrop head 
his chin 
could have 
cut paper
could have 
cut timber

~

i remember 

hes two & half foot tall 
if that 

& theres a knowing glowing 
in his black eyes 

& theres a penetration 
in those eyes 

& i remember 
feeling 
seen 

~

hes not a kid 
i remember 
one look was enough 
to know 
hes not a kid

i remember 
he freaked me out 
& freaks me out still 

no joke tho 
at anyones expense 
but he was 
beyond human variety 
& no ones laughing here

i remember 
no one was laughing

~

now theres human conditions 
all sorts of human conditions 
of melting pot variety 
but 
i remember 
i googled facial displacements
& anomalys soon as i got in 
& nothing medical 
was close to this 
nothing even close 
to what i saw

~

that was 
no child with a condition
that was 
silent visitation

i remember 
i think 
i saw 
an alien 

& apparently 
thats ok
