Speculation, theory, UFOs and Aliens. Are we alone in this universe or is there life outside Earth?
The Legacy
The Legacy: Living on Eggshells John W. Gilmore “I can’t imagine being anywhere else, can you?” She asked, large brown eyes blinking, sitting in front of the TV watching Star Search 2550. “There are bad things going on in the world...horrible. I’ll admit that,” she said, “but you have to learn to roll with the punches sometimes. Tim, your problem is that you aren’t rolling.” She pointed the remote at the TV and began to click through channels. She paused and looked at me. “Roll Dear. You better roll because you really don’t have a choice.”

How We Saved Haykitor
She marched right up to the commander and spit in his face. “You don’t own me. You don’t own shit!” Craylin didn’t have a moment to prepare for the crack of the commander’s large steak of a hand upon her face. It brought little stars into her eyesight and she stood stunned for only a moment before breaking into a deep undulating cackle. As the cackle grew louder a small fluttering sound could be heard. The commander looked over his shoulder to the sky.

Do UFO's And Aliens Exist?
Of course UFO's have always existed if you think about it. Unidentified Flying Objects have been roaming the skies for decades That does not necessarily mean that they are space craft full of weird aliens from some other planet or dimension. It just means that there things up in the sky that we have been unable to identify. Many have tried, and failed, to identify those objects as weather balloons, drones and lord knows what else. So far nobody has been able to unequivocally nail what those objects are. For me that is all part of the attraction, the mystery of it all.

The Mind, the Alien, and the Apocalypse: Part One
PART ONE: SIGNS AND WONDERS AT THE END OF HISTORY People are pretty hyped about aliens these days. Recently, the military just declassified several documents that were supposedly amassed over the years regarding UFO sightings. Scientists are increasingly baffled over strange satellite-like objects that have emerged in our solar system. Just this spring, a flying pyramid was spotted over the US.

Kernel of an idea
Dreams, the quintessential experience of every nightmare that isn’t during waking hours. It is improbable that dreams can be an easy escape from reality when in day to day life there is kidnapping, rape, murder, betrayal, and not to mention the slow drudgery of everyday tasks, jobs—-dreams gone to waste. Of course there are some luckier than others, who just seem to fit into the roughest terrain and seem to know exactly how to maneuver through it with grace and prosperity. When I was first brought into overseeing a highly secretive and high profile mission that required keeping secret the most important dream of humanity since man first looked at the moon, it was not easy to manage. My dreams canvassed more than what normal folks wanted. I never wanted children, a wife, a job. I never wanted a huge house and a yard with the picket fence. I didn’t even want to live on earth.

My UFO Experience
I was probably 14 when this happened. I was sleeping, but of course I can't remember what time I woke up maybe 2-3 am, but I remember not being able to see my huge tree in my backyard out of my bedroom window. I got a bit scared because I was just thinking to myself 'What could possibly be obstructing my view of the tree? There has to be an object there or something, but what exactly could it be?". I knew I had to look closely at it, but of course it being so dark I really couldn't make out the color since all I saw was a pure black object in a really dark backyard. I of course got scared the moment that I realized that the object or whoever or whatever was inside this object had noticed I had seen it. It didn't make any noise as it disappeared as fast as I had woken up to look at it. I didn't realize the danger I was in until after I saw the red light on my white sheer curtains in front of my window that were opened the whole time ever since I had fallen asleep that night around 11 or 12 midnight since the next day was Saturday. Please do note that I had never seen an Unidentified Flying Object ever in my life before this incident. Now back to my story. I had heard footsteps on my roof over my room after the object had zoomed away at speeds that not even a plane could go. I immediately got out of my room, and into my parent's room to tell them I saw something outside of my window, and now I am hearing footsteps so of course my mom being half asleep tells me that it could be a raccoon, and chalks it up to my imagination when I knew it wasn't. I had gone back to my bedroom after the footsteps had stopped noticing that my toy chest was open. I quickly of course looked around my room in shock, then closed it, and of course locking it up so it couldn't open again. I could barely sleep easy that night, but I knew if I didn't get some more sleep I would be dead tired in the morning. I woke up the next morning, and something told me to look in my toy chest to see if anything was missing. I looked through my toy chest, and sure enough one of my favorite barbie doll's, and yes I said barbie doll's because of course I kept them, but never played with them. I came out of my room to see my godfather was already at the house, and I said to both of my parent's, and godfather that my barbie doll is missing from my toy chest. Of course my godfather had only been there for 20 minutes so he had no clue as to what was going on. He had me draw what I had seen the night before so I drew it, and me being very close to my godfather I remember sitting on his lap showing him the drawing. He asked me if I had ever seen the object before, and of course me being scared I shook my head no. My father then had the presence in mind to clear off the window sill in the kitchen, then climbs out of the window leading to the roof to see if my barbie was on the roof. I had seen him come back with it, but I didn't want to take the barbie doll from him in case whoever or whatever it was came back to my house to retrieve it. I couldn't even dream of wanting to put it back in my room because of the fear I had of who or whatever took it to begin with. I made my father put it back on the roof right where he found it, and he came back inside putting everything back onto the window sill where it was. My mother later on had to go up the street, and around the corner to a market called Arrow Market which is no longer in business now. She had to get a few things like bread, a gallon of milk, and I think a few candy bars for herself, my dad, and I. She had paid for everything, then started to walk home, and as she was turning onto our block she saw something up in the air that made no noise just like how I had seen it the night before. She had described it as a cigar shaped object in the sky with lights on it. When she had told my godfather, and I plus my dad I knew right then that I wasn't crazy. I knew that granted she didn't know what it was, and didn't want to say it was a UFO, but I knew deep down that she had known exactly what it was that she had seen. I know now that I am not crazy, and if I ever see something like that again in my lifetime, then i'll know then that i'm not crazy like I thought I was 20 years ago. I know that somewhere other greater intelligent beings do exist, but ever since that day 20 years ago I had become a confirmed believer of everything that is not of this world. I hope that after you read this you'll become a believer as well unless of course it has to happen to you first to be able to believe which I understand greatly. I do hope as well that this story of mine has brought most of you some kind of clarity, and understanding if you will for intelligent beings that of course are not human.

Betwixt the Chasm of Minds
BETWIXT THE CHASM OF MINDS by Gage Fine Lore Dayton and Fritz were adventurous at heart, living full time with their father Clay out of the nicest mobile home park in the city.

The Angel of El Escorial
Originally published in the Wavelengths anthology, June 2018. The notes in the pages that follow are a secret to all but God the Father and their author, Epifanio Artemio Felix, servant of the Holy Mother Church and bearer and translator of the Holy Scripture in the name of Bishop of Rome and the Father General of the Society of Jesus. That I have kept the contents of this pamphlet a secret is my greatest sin, and I have begged forgiveness from the Lord for my cowardice. In the name of my life, my reputation and my station, I concealed the marvel that we discovered in the foothills of Sierra de Guadarrama. In my defense, however feeble, I feared the impact that the entity would have on an empire that stands on a foundation that even still erodes. My prayers are that this information be found in a time of stability when the information can be used to the greater glory.
