she sat there like a photograph
of someone much further away
we shared a brief bus stop
on one of those inbetween days
she gave me her smile
and I looked underneath
at the lipstick on her teeth
she asked me for a light

Special announcement to the Universe
A love mission
Intergalactic
Your mission is the preservation of creation
Special request to the observation
Love's stronger than a mutual
Dread I reporting to special mission Love
Leader 1
Come in. Love Leader 1
Observer 1 reporting
Alien state, find war machinery
Evil walking, overtake the city
My scanner picks up vibes coming from another
place
Evil cabal in my space
No matter what creed, no matter what race
Soldiers,...
All across this planet
The only peaceful place, hmmmm
Reggae...
