A piece of silliness for the Vocal Extraterrestrial Challenge that you can read about here
The Prompt
Write a rhyming poem about the first thing you would introduce to an alien on Earth.
Blarney is not exactly local to Killarney, but, you know, poetic license, and if you want to know about the Blarney Stone you can read it here.
The music is "Kiss" by Prince

Miniature Mind Musings #8:
Recently, I spoke with a family member who I struggled to catch up with for a longer timespan than I wouldβve liked and what struck me was how societal templates filled in on successive days routinely suck our time into a vacuum of seemingly infernal deficiency.

hahahaha!! THIS is one of my favorites of yours Mike! FANTASTIC!! I laughed so hard! And LOVE the image! <3
Wife was Irish~British - we actually kissed it - such a cold kiss - βJβ
Great work!
Great Mike, This is an amazing writing...
Lol, that was hilarious! Very creative!
I love this Mike! You captured the folk story brilliantly! Showing the alien the Blarney stone so they can communicate - Outstanding!
That's odd. Kissing the Blarney stone just earned me a whole lot of slaps across the face, lol. (Just kidding. I've never been of the North American continent before. Still, that's kind of what I expect would happen if I did.)
This is a fun poem! It actually reminds me of a story ones told by one of my Irish friends who is always going back to Ireland to see his family. Apparently one of the bars has a blarney stone that the locals piss on and then they laugh about when travelers go down and kiss it.
Hee hee. That pretty good. Love it.
lol, love this, Mike <3
