lucy lee was the prettiest girl in town.
maybe some folks thought millie martin was prettier, but they were outnumbered.
nevertheless lucy came to a strange end.
one night she was walking along the old mill road.
perhaps she had an inkling of what was in store for her.
the road was quiet.
lucy saw a red light in the sky.
a strange light.
she did not seem terribly curious.
but perhaps she had little understanding of mysterious phenomena.
a varmint named will wilson was sitting in a tree beside the road.
he had been waiting for lucy.
but had not expected the red light in the sky.
you must be kidding me, he muttered under his boozy breath.
nothing could have prepared him for the sight that met his eyes.
the alien ship landed.
the door of the alien ship began to open.
lucy was strangely calm.
but will, in his tree, was dumbfounded.
it was as if lucy had been expecting the ship.
lucy got in the ship and it flew away.
with no great fuss or blare of trumpets.
how about that?
i could have told you so.
don’t jump to conclusions.
just because somone is the prettiest girl in town, it does not mean you know who she is.
let this be a warning.
maybe you learned something.
