The UFO Motel:
They checked into the UFO Motel
A little motel in the middle of nowhere
On a road to nowhere
That wasn’t on the map.
They arrived in the middle of the night
Lost and exhausted
They had seen the flashing neon sign
The sign read:
Vacancy
All kinds welcome
They pulled their numb bodies out of their vehicle
Stumbling up to the clerk’s office.
Swinging the glass door open
They made their way to the counter
Nearly collapsing from the long journey
There was no one behind the counter
So they rang the bell
A beam of white light shot up from the floor
The light dissipated and in front of them stood a man
He was a skinny fellow
With a dingy brown mustache and a unabrow
His teeth were crooked
At least those that remained
“A room please?” they said.
The man behind the counter handed them a key
“Room 13 at the end of the Hall---enjoy your stay”
They shambled down the hall
Dragging their baggage behind them
They reached the door and scanned the key
The door slide up
They stepped inside the room
Throwing their bags on the floor
They unzipped their spacesuits
Laying on the bed
Their green tentacles pulsating
Their 6 eyes blinking closed as they fell asleep.
