definition of lonely lol


Dead Stick Beach Landing (based on a sci-fi short story I read as a teen, forget the name or author)
The pilot landed his pointy space plane on the beach
It was a long sloping beach so he needed a touch of rudder
Like his wife tickling one of his nuts

But she was dead like everybody else

Space travel did that or light speed did
Several years of it was toooo delayed
Thus the pilot returned to a world now changed

Humanity was gone and so was everything else

Smoke and ash remained along with a poisoned atmosphere
The carbon monoxide allowed him to land
Gave his wings and controls something to bite on
Or he would crash like a meteor

His nuclear fuel used up not enough to light a cigarette

He had no way to replenish his oxygen
So in three hours he was dead
Or sooner if he popped the door

And took a breath of poisoned air

Fuck that time for a beer and some metal tunes
Maybe the aliens saw me land and will rescue me
They can even join me for a beer
There are twenty four out of date cans...
