Sunday Muse - Stealing through the night
Space Man Walking the Streets
He comes in the middle of the night
No one knows how he gets here
They say he's looking for specimens
Humans for sake of science
There's no one missing that we know
Dogs and cats some rabbits too
Birds large and small, fish and turtles
Don't let him come near to yours
Was 'shopping' secretly, clandestine
But as of late he's come out
Walking the streets, covers gone
Searching, specimens correct
Will it be a healthy you or me
Walking the streets, hope neither

This could be a great story Jim! Would love to hear more!
Well...this gave me a shudder. Not sure why he was searching for specimens & don't want to know. :)
Oooooh, Halloween is a’coming ~~~ horror stories witches monsters and all.
Well, he DOES sort of stand out, so beware!!
You and I took similar inspiration from the picture. Good one, Jim.
I'm not sure exactly what's going on here, but this part, "But as of late he's come out
Walking the streets, covers gone
Searching," I'm getting a little nervous.
Oh the dark side of aliens among us
Nice one
Much💜love
Maybe he will stop by Tiffany's. Or grab a burger at Five Guys in Time's square. Look, if he's shopping, he might as well enjoy himself, right? Even bodysnatchers say I "heart" NY!
