Pictures of her covered a whole wall, as well as the top of every nightstand, table and dresser. Amidst them all was one small family photo, of him with his ex-wife and daughter. It had been taken soon after sheād graduated from high school, and not long before his first affliction his. Theyād all been close then, before the dementia. They never came to visit him, though, that first time, or now. Only she did.
He knew she was coming to visit him later today. It was the only thrill left in his days. He always knew when that time came. It was how he marked the time. Dates and hours, days of the week, months of the year, they all meant nothing to him. He cared only about when she would arrive, and when she would leave. In between was just the boring, meaningless, numberless passage of time, like the moment between one second and the next, but drawn out into an unbearable length.
Today was different, too, special beyond all of her usual visits. Sheād said that sheād found it. That gave everything a different feel. The air had a different taste, the walls a different color. He couldnāt say he felt more alive, but the world did. It was like there was, for the first time in years, something new that could happen, something to hope for. He had hope that there was again something new in the world waiting to be discovered.
Thatās how children lived. Children lived a life filled with wonder. They lived a life where every day might bring a new joy or marvel, or even pain, but it was still new. Every day might bring something fresh and revealing, and most days did. Good or bad, the pain or joy always passed, but it kept things interesting. Not so for old men gazing listlessly forward at the too-near end of their days.
She was young and vibrant, beautiful and glowing, and she adored him. His tired shell of a body and twisted mind couldnāt return her love, not any more, but still she lavished hers on him, in a tender, warm, nonsexual way, and he silently thanked her for that. Sheād become, here near the end, both the wife and the daughter who had abandoned him.
As things had turned out, as his life had turned out, it was more than he could expect, and probably more than he deserved. Most of the family had abandoned him, after what heād done and how heād lived. Now he only had her, and even then, only when she could spare the time to pay him a quick visit. She was a good, generous girl, but she still had a full life to live. It made him feel guilty, but not guilty enough to urge her not to come.
It all had dwindled to this. Heād already been here once before, or in a place and situation like it, long ago, although for the life of him he couldnāt remember much of those days. They were a blur, like a dream that was so very vivid in the moment between sleep and waking, and yet is so hard to recall a few hours later over breakfast and coffee.
That was probably for the best. It was painful enough to live this way now, let alone to remember how bad it had been before.
To help him dismiss his morbid thoughts he pulled out the sheets of paper, to resume reading where heād left off.
Interlude 2 : Alien Science Lesson
It might be the time to teach how one enslaves
Using Telefragenic Neuromalous Waves
The things they can do
To make people screw
And how they affect how a person behaves
These waves are emitted in pulses or spurts
Which lower men's trousers and raise women's skirts
By playing toccata
On one's Oblongata
In a fashion that bounces from āpleasantā to āhurtsā
A teasing imbalance of pleasure and pain
Can cause any person to cease to remain
With their moral compass,
They coolly turn pompous
And so choose a course from which they should refrain
A Telefragenic Neuromalous Wave
Will twist neurons āround to make one misbehave
Bombarded too long
What is right becomes wrong
And what is just wrong becomes what one will crave
So now that you know all the science and stuff
Perhaps in your judgement you wonāt be too tough
On the family Brown
Whoāll get up to go down
On forbidden, incestuous, sensuous muff
Phase III ā Target : Thomas, The Marine
Old Brown lay quite spent, after all his ordeals
Such as fucking a space ship out in his corn fields
Or giving no quarter
While fucking his daughter
And reveling in her too passionate squeals
It now became Bobbie Jeanās role to fulfill
To move down the hall and decide whom she will
Make come with her next
As a perverse pretext
To turning their brains into quite useless swill
The nymph held three seedpods, all ready and waiting
And a strange, odd device, for T wave emanating,
Thus armed sheād begin,
To seduce her own kin,
By engaging with them in the act known as mating
Her own choice of partners was sibling, or mother,
She had to pick which of their brains she would smother,
With alien guiding
She far preferred riding,
So needing a cock to do that, chose her brother
Tall, muscular Thomas was now a Marine,
Heād entered the service at barely eighteen
Four years in the Corps
Made him into much more
So much it appealed to his sis, Bobbie Jean
He was muscled and covered with many tattoos
Exotically drawn on his taut, strong sinews
It made her so warm
That his artistic form
Could be doing to her anything he might choose
Her brother's tattoos were intensely exciting
Two tigers, with claws out for savagely fighting,
A girl who was stacked,
A skull that was cracked,
And a cobra, mouth open for venomous biting
The thought of a strong man built so well, like him,
All muscles and tattoos, in fighting-fit trim,
Made her sex glands sweat
And almost forget
That her dear brotherās prick should not enter her quim
As brother and sister the two were quite close
There stirred in between them a sense of eros,
But they never committed
What wasnāt permitted
At least, ātil this evil raid from the cosmos
In the past sheād tried hard not to think of her brother,
As a mighty, strong, conquering warrior-lover,
But when she was bored
His cock was a sword
And her pussy was where he could bravely take cover
A powerful soldier like Thomas, she'd bet
Could make her soft, cool loins heat up, hot and wet
A fine sibling lay
Was a marvelous way
To produce a fond memory sheād always regret
For his part, strong Thomas, the service had sought
