the global story is a sad one with glimmers of hope
it’s become public knowledge
bounty hunters
have been going after hand-picked fat cats
of all stripes
mostly from first-world countries
on land or at sea
according to non-governmental officials
aliens life forms have assimilated
with humans for decades now
cooperating in covert operations
in nonviolent ways
some say they are the
bounty hunters
their influence game-changing
meticulously reengineering the warlords
within the human genome
may two thousand twenty-four
