As I lay face-up upon my bed, strange thoughts roared inside my head. br The ceiling light’s cover seemed like a pearl, causing my synapses to swiftly swirl. br Was I really in a house, pray tell? Or was I encased in a huge oyster shell? br Was I a man such as you might greet, or was I a great big hunk of oyster meat? br br I laughed a bit at my thought; if it persisted I may become overwrought. br I had on clothes, the room was square. I was NOT oyster meat. My head had hair! br Just as my racing mind was slowing, the room shook as if from a great wind blowing. br The ceiling exploded. Down came two walls. I found myself staring at two huge jaws. br br The “pearl” had fallen on the bed. I was shocked beyond belief and filled with dread. br Above the gaping jaws I spied two huge eyes; we looked at each other, each filled with surprise. br Drops, baseball-sized, dripped from jagged teeth. They soaked me both on top and underneath. br The odor emanating from that face...... made me wish that from it I could race. br br I shivered now as if nearly frozen. Why for me had this fate been chosen? br I was not sure if I were dreaming, but that it was real, it sure was seeming. br I’d heard of beings from Outer Space which kidnap Earthlings, leaving no trace. br As I watched the visage of this beast, I was sure I’d become its “Alien's oyster-feast”.
