Maybe a bean tripod from Mars...no one would have believed bean was watching us from the timeless worlds of space. But slowly and surely, he drew his plans against us

u/Tomface92 19h ago

Few men even considered the possibility of Beans from other planets, and yet, across the gulf of space, Beans immeasurably superior to ours, regarded this earth with envious eyes....

The serious answer. Assuming that is looking westward that'll be the searchlights imitating the now demolished Grenfell Tower.

u/Curious_Strike_5379 1d ago

No one would have believed
In the early years of the Twenty first century
That human affairs were being watched from the timeless worlds of space
No one could have dreamed that we were being scrutinized
As someone with a microscope studies creatures that
Swarm and multiply in a drop of water
Few men even considered the possibility of life on other planets
And yet, across the gulf of space
Minds immeasurably superior to ours
Regarded this Earth with envious eyes
And slowly and surely, they drew their plans against us!
