Hello - just a tidbit - this was penned from a Times Ten challenge back in May, 2008. The ten words are: lecture, earth, tight, escape, dawn, truth, miracle, fearless, home, hollow. They need not stay if your critique spots something you'd like to mention.
Miracle Marauders
Hapless Hollow beckons, home to miracle marauders lecturing escape as a new dawn emerges.
Fearless flimflam scams conveniently covet truth, exposed by undetected alien encounters.
Could they be feuding factions of a tightened Earth?
Unlikely.
If only mankind’s naiveté could be critiqued, packaged, published and sold universally;
I should think we’d be first on the galaxy’s guide of the top ten places to infest.
Likely.
It’s not always paramount to be number one. . .
In fact, I think I’ll board the next UFO to anywhere but here.
If only.
