Ft. Fisher, NC – Rocks and Sky

People of the Stars
Why did they come here, the people from the stars?They certainly left behind their lives,Their loved ones,Their peace of mind,To come and experience our insanity. How did they get here, the people from the stars?Was it a rocket,Or maybe a tesseract,Or a wormhole?A fiery trip on a pressurized chariot?Comparable with nothing we can experience, to…
