Star Trek Dare

Richard Fein

Star Trek time warp anomaly
taking you where Kirk and Spock never dared go,
for Roddenberry never risked writing such a script.
The usual teleport malfunction and behold,
here you are in David’s ancient village
on that revered eve.
Is the orbiting starship Enterprise pointing the way?
Do choirs of celestial beings sing through your communicator?
No need for special effects for the stable door is in your grasp.
What is sheltered by the manger beyond that stable door
myrrh, frankincense, gold,
a goddess wife of so very few words,
a child of the cosmos,
and three wise Vulcans to explain it all?
Or are there only
sleeping sheep, a drowsing ass,
a cuckold husband,
and a haggard mother nursing her newborn?
You have two choices, walk away or open a door.
When on line for a Star Trek movie
and a spoiler in front of you reveals the ending,
do you hold your ears?
