FAILED DIPLOMACY<\/p>\n
by Bill Kochman<\/p>\n

Why are aliens always naked,
\nMan, it just really puts me off,
\nShow respect and decency,
\nGo find yourself a loincloth.<\/p>\n
I know you are not from here,
\nYour home is very far away,
\nOn Earth we wear clothing,
\nPut some on without delay!<\/p>\n
You make diplomacy so hard,
\nWhen your butt is in my face,
\nHow can I even concentrate,
\nMy eyes are all over the place.<\/p>\n
Maybe it is all simply natural,
\nAt the place where you reside,
\nBut here we do have our rules,
\nSo some skin you need to hide.<\/p>\n
Sir, please don’t take offense,
\nLet us be interplanetary pals,
\nIt’s just that wearing clothing,
\nA lasting treaty it surely sells.<\/p>\n
Thanks for the consideration,
\nIt really puts my mind at ease,
\nNow cover your third eyeball,
\nWe’ll then dot i’s and cross t’s.<\/p>\n
Oh wait! Where are you going?
\nNegotiations aren’t even done,
\nWhy are you so in such a hurry,
\nFriend why do you have to run?<\/p>\n
Uh, did I say something wrong?
\nI really don’t have a single clue,
\nThings were going really swell,
\nTill they flew off into the blue.<\/p>\n
Negotiating with those aliens,
\nCan be a most challenging job,
\nFor at times you will get a few,
\nWho act just like a total snob.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
