Hybrid stares across time
Aeons past wolf’s borrowed bone
Waiting for his mom

Space/Earth hybrid gnat release
Turns on their breeders

Lone flower blooms in early spring

Sink into myself
Hybrid child of culture clash
Caught between harsh worlds

A poetry graphic with a foreground text and background picture. The foreground text reads: Two halves – never whole. Chase both; to find something more. A hybrid... alone. Sink, pay Nature's toll. Parents' sins have racked a score, and now—You—atone. So? Set your own goal. Follow the Moon: Go, explore! Show them how you've grown. The background image shows: A human looking alien hybrid gets into the cockpit of an alien craft to take flight into space for the first time.

In science fiction, we see characters so eager to score with an alien hottie. But very rarely do people really think of the generational impact.

The challenge prompts were:
1. Sink
2. Follow The Moon
3. Hybrid

its flesh and wood sway gently
soft blood petals fall

prompt: hybrid

Land of tree-obsessed
where the people never see
willow hybrid beings

#inkmine #scifaikusaturday #haiku #extrasyllableisfree

your hybrid ideas
unequal parts genius
and cruel

your willow child weeps
and your waspish woman stings
as crow-kid foretells

you will offer me
the rainbow-striped cat poet
for one drop of blood

NASA Artemis Il astronaut Christina Koch is staring out a viewport of the Orion spacecraft. Her face and floating hair are silhouetted against the Earth in background. Christina is the first woman to see the Earth in its entirety. Overlaying the image is Alan Vincent Michaels’ scifaiku: Christina’s Countdown The longing between Gazing at her first full Moon All of us on Earth

Gravitational wave front
Through the galaxy.

After the new countdown
Those now telling globe pictures
Streamers of thin cloud

Faster and faster
Countdown to Armageddon
Tick, tick, tickticktick

#ScifaikuSaturday

A poetry graphic with a foreground text and background picture. The foreground text reads: Alone. Warm night sun on sand shore; Sunlit dust. Waves on waters deep. So... You're the last one. Accepting Darkness: Dim trust. Dreams in endless sleep. Still—Is this all done? Call of Time. Countdown to rust. No life left to keep. The background image shows: An old alien sits alone at a beach of orange sand beneath a purple sunset.

There's a theory that DNA/RNA bio data is a genetic life signal. With limited sequence combinations, every species must inevitably be... Doomed? Evolved?

The challenge prompts were:
1. Countdown
2. Accepting Darkness
3. Sand

Sadly, the flip side
Of a countdown is that you
Might have to stay down🛸
