Alfred Lehmberg: UFO Magazine Blog - In Pride Ensconced

A taste:

UFO Magazine - UFO Magazine Blog - In Pride�Ensconced: I spread my arms, beseech the sky, and wonder why we even try to elevate our species' place if much we touch is soon disgraced. We've potential we've ignored; we fall short, I'd bet? Deplored.
.
...And what of saucers flying there... perhaps with *people* filled—mon fr�re? Perhaps we're under observation, taken for an infestation! Waiting for some swift correction from those *persons* "passed detection"?
.
We don't know! The best response! Yet, we're in—unearned—pride ensconced. Bad enough—won't you agree—that one's compelled to calloused knee!
.
We aren't careful in the void; we won't make a sentient choice. Hearing what we want to hear, we're wasteful as regards what's dear: ...Life and children we respect, so give them more than sad neglect. Be our planet's steward—friend—and not a life-force we offend!
.
Are we wasteful... loathsome beings with nothing but our gall and spleen... to keep us from complete disaster—groveling for some gloating master?
