breaking the law of physics
they were bootlegging bread
(manna for their souls)
across the desert aboard
solar-powered getaway carpets
there were many contracts out
bounties on their heads
dead or alive mattered not
not as long as they had bread
some say they were aliens
newly arrived for umpteenth time
practicing rituals underground
living on contraband flatbread
january two thousand eighteen

Excellent piece. Humorous, but also quite serious.
Thank you very much, happy you like this one!
