Alien Castaway Seeks Asylum from Earthlings

I miss my world, my cities

miss my spacecraft, waiting rescue

from planet called Earth

dust covers buildings' roofs,

paint cracked faded

billboards as they are called

rise bleakly, torn, blistered

advertising mix of subjects

rise in midst of tangled wires

over every street, high voltage

twisted, dark wires

for earth communications

litter the sky above

I miss my world, my cities

where moisture is abundant

fine rains

cities sparkle, our buildings translucent

transparent spun gold

paint is unknown there,

our colors comprised of electron hues

tints are pastels

they glow in light of our eternal star

not so far as Earth sun, just perfectly near

no scorching of skin, plant leaves or air

no clutter on streets, no asphalt cracked

our roads are of glittering glass

I miss my world, my cities

there's violence here on this

Earth planet

some human creatures have

others have not

hunger and vice

night filled with fear

humans scream, fight, kill

I am glad to be cloaked with invisibility

I miss my world endowed with peace,

my world provides for all

all have, all share their love

there are no prisons, hospitals or mind clinics

eternal day rules the night

I miss my world where no one dies

sickness and pain do not abound

I miss my world nature filled

air is clear no storm or destruction

where nature has wrath

tornado earthquake tsunami or hurricane

do not exist

I long for freedom and peaceful bliss

help is coming take me back

to my world

In this world I perceive humans

they are like prey, their safety

always at risk

security cameras at every turn

like scales of a fish

reconnaissance cameras

line every crevice, cranny

and nook

where business is held,

where earthlings dwell

their peace officers, some are violent

they too wear cameras

where business is held

and homes where they live,

I miss my world, rescue is lagging

Earthlings harassed

IRS, delinquent bills, unruly road rage

combative neighbors turfed within fences,

media data bombard earth souls with

terror events,

theft of funds at times occurs

marketplace called Dow, Ponzi

scheme they call destroy economy

rise and fall recover again

earth dwellers call greed

we know no greed

I miss my world, I wish to go home

my invisibility cloak clings tightly to my skin

my eyes search this earth sky

internal transponder hums perpetually

await my world's rescue

Earth planet use of petrochemical technology

pollution of sky, fossil fuels prevail

though other clean energy means available

Hydrolysis, . . .

I fear our race cannot befriend these earth people

searched Earth media discovered YouTube

viewed film: The Day Earth Stood Still

Alien visitor attempted friendship

technology share

though alien in film benevolent

fear by humans unjustified

his destruction imminent

self defended

saw what they did to King Kong

earthling fight global scale,

country, city, home

internal

threat of wars at the drop of a look,

word, territorial move is all it took

first war, second, third one imminent

their history shows

saw what they did to John the Kennedy,

Robert, M the Luther,

too many to count

politician earth priests helpless to save

I miss my world

invisibility cloak will remain until rescue arrives

transports me home 150 light years away

my compassion for earthlings is strong

would that I could

wish I could warn

materialize and instruct

saw what they did to Jesus the Christ

I fear for my life
