my heart is an alien spacecraft
poem by John Mortara
my heart is an unidentified failing object
there is not enough evidence to confirm or deny the existence of my heart
many people have claimed to have seen my heart
but it was only a weather balloon slash military test flight
it is possible my heart taught the egyptians how to build the pyramids and brew beer
it is possible my heart is a reptilian shapeshifter disguised as a heart
many people have claimed to have been abducted by my heart and probed inside of it
but they are just unbalanced individuals my heart seems to attract everywhere my heart goes
the truth is my heart never crashed in new mexico
my heart was never captured by the government
the truth is my heart is not interested in your feeble planet
if anything my heart is keeping the earth at arm’s length.
